PRESIDENT Emmerson Mnangagwa had no influence on a ruling that declared Nelson Chamisa's leadership of the MDC illegitimate, a senior government official has said.
Deputy Information Minister, Energy Mutodi narrated to newzimbabwe.com that High Court Judge Justice Edith Mushore's judgment was based on facts placed before her.
"President Emmerson Mnangagwa has nothing to do with the Chamisa verdict in the High Court. Opposition members should stand with what they believe in and stick to the expectations of Zimbabweans and democratic principles.
"We are not involved in opposition politics, we are the ruling party. One of the MDC members took this matter to the courts and the court ruling was based on litigation and merit," Mutodi said.
