*Mwonzora Cancels Rally Over Low Turnout* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?nh MDC-T leader, Douglas Mwonzora, on Wednesday accused ZANU PF and CCC of planning to unleash violence against his supporters in Chinhoyi. Mwonzora was speaking to journalists after MDC-T supporters, numbering less than 30, turned out for his rally ahead of the 26 March by-elections. ---------- itel A70 256GB $99USD WhatsApp: https://wa.me/+263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 ---------- The supporters were told to go home around 3 pm by aspiring Chegutu West legislator, Gift Konjana following a brief address in an almost empty Chinhoyi Hall in Gadzema township. Mwonzora and MDC Alliance candidates in the 26 March by-elections later held a meeting at former Chinhoyi deputy mayor and aspiring Ward 3 councillor, Willie Nyambe’s house. The MDC-T leader downplayed the low attendance at the rally and told reporters that the meeting at the Chinhoyi Hall was in preparation for a star rally scheduled for Sunday at Zimbabwe Grounds in Harare. Said Mwonzora: > We couldn’t hold our public meeting due to security issues as ZANU PF and CCC members were milling around the venue. > We don’t want to be drawn into violence, blood, name-calling and hate politics, so we have had to cancel the meeting. We didn’t want our members victimised. > I want to publicly appeal to our political opponents to desist from provoking MDC. We are urging people to campaign peacefully. > Our strategy in these by-elections is to know the real voters, and we are not interested in crowds. *More: New Zimbabwe* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
