ZAPU president Dumiso Dabengwa says he strongly believes that the presidential elections were manipulated in favour of Zanu-PF's presidential candidate, Emmerson Mnangagwa.

According to results released by the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC), Mnangagwa garnered 50, 8% against MDC Alliance Nelson Chamisa 44, and 3%.

In an interview with New Zimbabwe.com, Dabengwa said evidence at hand clearly shows that the presidential elections were rigged.

"My advice to the MDC Alliance and Chamisa in particular is that they should collect all the evidence and take the matter to court," said Dabengwa.

"I think that the evidence they have makes it really apparent that something was not done properly and that the elections were not transparent, particularly on the presidential vote."

Dabengwa said there were serious discrepancies between voters who voted in the presidential elections and those who voted in the parliamentary ballot.

The former home affairs minister said he is confident that any competent court will be able to pick up the anomalies.
