National Election Reform Agenda (#NERA) affiliates have vowed to stage more street demonstrations with or without police clearance.

This comes in the wake of another lengthy month long ban.

On Monday, police issued a notice of a proposed temporary prohibition order of the holding of public demonstrations and processions in the Harare Central Business District beginning Friday to October 15.

The proposed prohibition order was issued by the regulating authority of the area, the Officer Commanding Harare Central District, Chief Superintendent Newbert Saunyama.

However, MDC-T secretary general Douglas Mwonzora said they will not be deterred.

"We are going ahead with the demonstration on Saturday with or without their blessing. We do not need their permission.

"We have the law in our favour".
