[AUDIO]: MDC split leaves Zim vulnerable

Power battle within Zimbabwe's opposition party MDC leaves Zimbabwe vulnerable to authoritarian rule, says @JacaNews correspondent Zenzele Ndebele.

 Morgan Tsvangaria has been suspended from his position as president of political party MDC.

This course of action has led to a power battle within Zimbabwe’s only opposition party leaving the country with no voice against the labelled authoritarian ruling party Zanu-Pf.

Tsvangaria's suspension follows the following allegations:

 

- MDC was deviating from democratic principles under his rule.

 

- The party believes MDC lost last year’s election because Tsvangaria was not the best candidate. 

 

- Tsvangaria has been president of MDC since its formation in 2000 which paints him as power hungry.

 

What MDC in-fighting means for Zimbabwe:

 

- Labelled authoritarian leading party Zanu-Pf along with the state-run police force will be uncontested.

 

The MDC power battle leaves the people of Zimbabwe hopeless because there will be no voice against Zanu-pf.
