‘Tsvangirai , Says I Will Never Join Biti, But Urges Him To Join Zanu-PF’

MDC-T leader Morgan Tsvangirai has said while efforts to forge a coalition with “like-minded” opposition parties is the way to go, he will never consider re-uniting with his former secretary-general Tendai Biti, urging him instead to consider joining Zanu-PF.

Tsvangirai told hundreds of MDC-T supporters in Zengeza West yesterday that Biti and his People’s Democratic Party leadership should forge an alliance with Zanu-PF instead of continuously attacking his person.

Mugabe”They have launched their party and if they believe they can offer anything, let the people judge,” he said.

“There are people preoccupied with Tsvangirai bashing, but if they were using that same energy to attack President [Robert] Mugabe things would be better. I suspect that those attacking me should form a coalition with Zanu-PF and leave like-minded people alone,” he said in reference to his reported plans to come together with People First.

Tsvangirai said it was premature to rule out an alliance with People First, a formation of former Zanu-PF officials, basing on ideological differences.

Since the split from the main opposition MDC-T, Biti has been attacking Tsvangirai at every opportunity describing him as a failed politician who should be written off from the country’s political landscape.
