MDC Alliance leader Nelson Chamisa will this weekend address party supporters in Gwanda and Beitbridge where he is set to thank his supporters as well as to advise them on the way forward.

Chamisa held a well attended 'Thank You' rally at Gwanzura stadium in Harare last weekend after Bulawayo High Court Judge Justice Nokuthula Moyo set aside a police order barring the MDC Alliance from proceeding with its rally which had been scheduled for the Midlands city of Kwekwe last Sunday.

Chamisa, who insists he won the presidential vote on July 30 despite the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission declaring a narrow victory for the incumbent, President Emmerson Mnangagwa, has refused to concede and says he will ask his supporters about the next steps to take.

The MDC Alliance is a coalition of seven opposition parties that was launched on the 5th of August, 2017 at the Zimbabwe Grounds in Highfield, with the aim to challenge Zanu-PF in 2018 harmonised elections.

The electoral coalition brought together MDC-T and former MDC breakaway parties (Welshman Ncube and Tendai Biti who had left in 2005 and 2014 respectively) together with other parties including Zanu Ndonga, Transform Zimbabwe and Zimbabwe People First.
