He responded: > What I know is that Zanu PF people are afraid of my candidature because Zanu PF has dealt with me for quite a long time as a member of the opposition. > This is the party that has detained me for over 34 times, starting with my detention at Whawha in 1990 and another detention in Mutare when I was heading Copac (Constitution Parliamentary Committee). > I am sure as chairperson of Copac I must have given Zanu PF a few sleepless nights. I have a formula for defeating that party. I defeated Zanu PF first as a member of ZUM ( Zimbabwe Unity Movement) and fought against a one-party state and we won. > In 1989-90, we fought against a one-party state and I was a member of the students’ union as well as a member of ZUM, where I was in the executive as will presidential spokesperson. > We were able to defeat Zanu PF in its one-party state agenda. > In 1997 I took the government to court over the constitutionality of the Political Parties Finance Act and I successfully challenged it in on the Supreme Court, which he was the Constitutional Court on that occasion. > I have been a member of alt- the MDC and as a member of Copac we have had our new Constitution and it came via the leadership I offered to my colleagues. So I am not doubtful regarding what I can achieve. > I think I do possess the abil-ities of strategic thinking and strategic planning. I think I will be more difficult for the Zanu PF people. Some MDC-Alliance members loyal to Nelson Chamisa have accused senior party member of being paid by Zanu-PF to frustrate Nelson Chamisa’s bid to continue leading the party after the congress in May. *Related:* “I Have The Rights To Contest Whatever Position Members Advise” – Douglas Mwonzora More: The Standard _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
