We Do Not Want To Lose Them: MDC-T Places Majome, Mudzuri On Senate List

The Nelson Chamisa led MDC-T party has placed prominent opposition politicians, Jessie Majome and Elias Mudzuri on the Senate list. This comes after the pair refused to participate in the party’s primary elections, with Majome threatening to run as an independent. MDC-T national chairperson, Morgen Komichi said,

Most of the things she (Majome) raised, we have addressed them. She raised those issues prematurely, but we have been discussing. What is left is for us to agree on the way forward. If she is not prepared to go through the primary elections due to sticking issues, we would offer her the proportional representation slot or the Senate…She is a very important asset to the party and we still want her.

…we have engaged our vice-president (Mudzuri) and he has agreed to be on the Senate list and will not be contesting in the primary elections.
