Nobody Wants A GNU, We Want A Transitional Authority: Chamisa Responds To Mnangagwa

MDC President Nelson Chamisa responded to President Mnangagwa saying he was not demanding a GNU, but wanted a transitional authority.

Speaking to NewsDay, Chamisa said Zimbabwe needs a transitional authority because it needs to return to legitimacy and an emergency economic rescue package. Said Chamisa:

Nobody wants a GNU. We have said we want a transitional authority because our nation is in transition. It needs a return to legitimacy and an emergency economic rescue package. As far as we are concerned, we do not have a government that has the backing of the people. This (Mnangagwa government) does not have the people’s mandate. It is the product of a contested and illegitimate declaration by the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (Zec).
