'MDC-T won't go to bed with Mujuru's Zanu-PF,' says Tsvangirai

Morgan Tsvangirai MDC-T leader said his party will not join Zanu-PF through the back door by entering into an alliance with former Vice-President Joice Mujuru, who now leads a new political party, Zimbabwe People First.

Addressing more than 500 MDC-T supporters at the party's provincial offices in Chinhoyi yesterday, Tsvangirai said the opposition risked "limb and arm" fighting Zanu-PF and would not allow somebody "who saw the light recently" to lead them.

Tsvangirai also took a swipe at Vice-President Phelekezela Mphoko's remarks that there were some people within Zanu-PF saying that after President Robert Mugabe's reign a person that comes as leader should not be of the Karanga ethnic group.

Tsvangirai said all tribes in the country had a right to lead the country.
