Independent Candidates Are Desperate Job Seekers Wasting Voters' Time: MDC Alliance Candidate

People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Secretary General Settlement Chikwinya, who is an MDC Alliance parliamentary candidate for Mbizo constituency in Kwekwe, said the increase in independent candidates is a reflection of the current employment situation in Zimbabwe.

Chikwinya said it is a waste of time for an independent candidate to seek a majority in a constituency adding that independent candidates do not know the matrix of an election. Said Chikwinya:

Independent candidates do not understand the matrix of a general election. This general election is about governance, you can’t make a government when you are an independent candidate. This general election is about endorsing a leader who comes from a political party to form a government. Looking at the complex matrices surrounding general elections the independent candidates are wasting the voter’s time. Their efforts are in vain. Voters are voting for a party not an individual. It’s a waste of time for an independent candidate to seek a majority in a constituency.
