Tendai Biti's team feels vindicated

MDC Renewal Team yesterday said MDC-T leader Morgan Tsvangirai's Personal Reflections, in which he bared how his party lost to Zanu-PF in last year's elections, all but vindicates its position that the former Premier should quit.

Personal Reflections is a document released by Tsvangirai on Monday this week, detailing his political tribulations and confessions on where he went wrong before the July 2013 elections.

"The irony of Tsvangirai's reflections is to vindicate the position of the Renewal Team," Jacob Mafume the Renewal Team spokesperson said yesterday.

Tsvangirai, in his Personal Reflections, admitted that he underestimated Zanu-PF's "rigging machinery" and stampeded the party into an election which they lost.

But Mafume said Tsvangirai's Personal Reflections were a futile attempt by the former Premier to rebrand and rehabilitate himself.

He said the dilemma with the MDC-T was that Tsvangirai had personalised the struggle for political change in the country.
