Coalition Of Democrats leadership rotates - Simba Makoni, Welshman Ncube take over

Coalition Of Democrats (CODE) agreement states that the chairmanship of the agreement rotates after every two months in alphabetical order of member parties.It is in that spirit that President Gilbert Dzikiti is replaced by President Simba Makoni of MKD as chairperson of CODE.

President Dzikiti indeed faced the birth pains and immedeate nursing of CODE at a critical time in the history of Zimbabwe.Indeed CODE leaders namely President Welshman Ncube, President Elton Mangoma, President Farai Mbira and President Simba Makoni chose to unite for the people of Zimbabwe. The signing of CODE is historical in that it is first of such magnitude where leaders are committed to a framework of working together towards a Zimbabwe that we all want.Political parties had to come together in building a better Zimbabwe for us all.There is indeed strength in unity and diversity.

The signing of the Coalition of Democrats(CODE) framework presents a new narrative for the people of Zimbabwe where ego and selfish aspirations were discarded for a better people centred Zimbabwe.Indeed the challenge and crisis of governance can only be answered by those who are inclusive and not exclusive.The foundation of CODE has been its rallying call not to exclude anyone .To date applications from various political parties are being considers by the relevant committee

We are humbled to have been led at this inception phase by DARE President Gilbert Dzikiti and we have no doubt that President Simba Makoni will carry on the baton and torch of CODE for the next two months.We are happy that we have committed ourselves to universal suffrage and in that light have called for the next election to be held under the auspices and supervision of the international community.

CODE invites all Zimbabweans to this campaign which will be held in parallel to the inclusive policy.
