Youths in PM Morgan Tsvangirai's MDC-T Masvingo Province have demanded 10 of the total 26 parliamentary seats.
The youth assembly resolved at a provincial youth executive meeting held at the party offices on Saturday that youths should be actively involved in the political field.
Masvingo youth wing provincial chairperson Oliver Chirume said the seats would be reserved for youths, even in the forthcoming primary elections.
With the 10 seats, he said the MDC-T will be able to wrestle the 12 seats that were won by Zanu-PF in the previous general polls held in 2008.
MDC-T won 14 seats in Masvingo and the youths believe that their participation in the forthcoming elections could whitewash Zanu-PF.
