'It's either we kick out Zanu-PF in 2018 or we are doomed,' says Tsvangirai

Movement for Democratic Change leader Morgan Tsvangirai has warned that if Zimbabweans do not unite to kick out Zanu-PF from power, his party will be doomed.

Addressing his supporters at Hauna Business Centre in Mutasa North yesterday, Tsvangirai said while his leadership will continue pushing for electoral reforms, the people needed to begin voter registration including even of 15-year-olds who would be eligible to vote in the next elections.

"Rwendo rwuno hazvikoni nekuti zvikaerekana zvakona we are doomed," said Tsvangirai. (It's either we kick out Zanu-PF in 2018 or we are doomed).

Tsvangirai, who revealed an aggressive new strategy to grow his party by reaching out to younger family members, said they should take a cue from apostolic churches who start teaching  their children to be prayerful when they are still young by taking them to religious conventions to learn.

Tsvangirai said he welcomed former Presidential Affairs minister and Zanu-PF Secretary for administration Didymus Mutasa's agitation for the removal of President Robert Mugabe's government.

"Although it took time for Mutasa to come around, we forgive and welcome him in our efforts to remove Mugabe and Zanu-PF," the MDC president said.
