MDC T ALLIANCE HALTS ALL POLITICAL DEBATES IN ZIMBABWE TO HELP ED CATCH ON THE MOMENTUM WITH THOSE REGALIAS FROM CHINA OR TO ASSERT POWER. WHICH IS WHICH? 26TH APRIL START DATE IS A MONTH AWAY. THIS IS SHOCKING.....DOES MDC WANT TO WIN?
Komichi has issued a press statement today barring MDC Alliance candidates from campaigning- which I believe abridges the freedom of expression and association. Its blatantly unconstitutional and draconianly dictatorial whatever reason is issued. in USA, UK many party candidates start campaigning 5 years before the primary raising money and so forth. I see why MDC T may lose if they take away the spirit of competition- I am shocked that this happened and everyone in Zimbabwe worth the salt will not speak against this in fear of retribution.
These candidates are using their own money and now all the political debates are illegally haulted in Zimbabwe with the Zanu having an upper hand in the blogosphere. No wonder why people belive MDC T is infiltrated by CIOs. Im sorry. I am functionally done with Zimbabwean politics as from today.
Here is the full press below -- lets debate:

Staff Reporter | The MDC led by Advocate Nelson Chamisa has suspended all primary election campaigning until full vetting of all prospective candidates is completed.
ZimEye.com spoke to MDC National Chairman, Morgen Komichi, who explained the internal procedure; "Those confirmed by the National Council will then start campaigning. The vetting of potential candidates will include if they are persons of good standing, have no criminal record. Also if not an infiltrator, because we need to look at that, when the euphoria is so high your opponent will easily deploy people to your camp."
The MDC leader said by the 26th of April all vetting would be complete and candidate lists ready. Below is the circular sent to all party provinces;
Provincial Chairs: The Party is currently working on the establishment of the Candidates Panel. We have not yet finished compiling the list of the legitimate candidates. The National Council shall announce all the qualified candidates to go for Primaries. Those who have started campaigning now are showing a high level of indiscipline. So Stop It. I put full responsibility on the Provincial Chairpersons to stop the practice in their respective areas. Those aspiring candidates who do not take heed of this instruction face very serious censure.
