MDC-T Bulawayo provincial chairperson Gorden Moyo says the MDC-T is here to stay and will shame "false" prophets who have said the party will never rule Zimbabwe.
The MDC-T is trying to re-group after last year's crushing defeat to Zanu-PF and party leader Morgan Tsvangirai has said he is not going anywhere despite increasing calls for him to step down.
Moyo told delegates attending a National Youth Development Trust (NYDT)-organised conflict transformation conference held at a local hotel that the MDC-T remains the only party that will bring "honey" to Zimbabweans.
Meanwhile, the MDC-T leader Morgan Tsvangirai on Friday said he will not step down from the leadership of the party because he lost the July 31 election to President Mugabe, but instead called for renewed talks with his arch-rival for a political settlement to arrest the crisis bedevilling the country.
Tsvangirai told hundreds of party supporters, diplomats and the party's leadership at a local hotel in Harare Friday night during his State of the nation address that 6 months after elections, Zimbabwe was faced with a serious crisis.
Faced with internal pressure to quit by some in his party accusing him of failure to defeat Mugabe, Tsvangirai said he was going nowhere yet.
Tsvangirai said the solution to the current crisis was unconditional dialogue with Zanu-PF that had exhibited cluelessness in dealing with the crisis.
