"The secret that I have for Zimbabweans is that we have to rally behind Tsvangirai in our own different ways. I am not saying because I am looking for something. I also want to be president but before we do that, why can't you support one person?' he told MDC-T supporters in Bulawayo on Saturday.
He added " Let's put Morgan Tsvangirai first then we fight for other positions,".
