MDC-T scared of Zanu-PF

Zanu-PF has said MDC-T's refusal to take part in the forthcoming by-elections despite being given a voters' roll which they have long been crying for by the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC), was because the party was scared of performing dismally.

In a statement, the revolutionary party's spokesperson Simon Khaya Moyo said the Western-sponsored MDC-T usually chickened out whenever the "political kitchen gets hot".

After President Mugabe announced that there would be two by-elections on March 27, in Mount Darwin West and Chirumanzu-Zibagwe constituencies, the MDC-T indicated that it would boycott these by-elections as they had not been given a voters' roll.
