President Robert Mugabe branded the inclusive Government "illegal and unconstitutional" saying individuals in the Sadc-brokered political arrangement were not elected into their offices and do not have the people's mandate.

He said Zanu-PF was not in a position to implement policies that benefit the people because of lack of cohesion in the inclusive Government.

The President said going for elections was the only alternative left, but noted that the MDC formations were opposed to the ballot.

President Mugabe said he expected Copac to complete the drafting of a new constitution within a month and pave the way for elections.

"We look forward to the conference in Bulawayo succeeding. We as the Central Committee have to ensure that it succeeds and produces a result that is resoundingly revolutionary. A result that enhances our national sovereignty," President Mugabe said.

Earlier, President Mugabe had donated 20 computers to Eaglesvale School in Harare at a function held at the Zanu-PF headquarters.
