Its Unwise For Anyone To Challenge Chamisa- Welshman Ncube

In an interview with The Chronicle, MDC vice president Welshman Ncube said it would be unwise for anyone to challenge current leader Nelson Chamisa given the momentum that he has at the particular moment.

Ncube said anyone who accepts nominations would be guilty of a political miscalculation. Chamisa faces a possible challenge from the party’s secretary general, Douglas Mwonzora at Congress set to run from 24-26 May. Said Ncube:

At this particular historical juncture to me, it appears unwise for anyone if they are nominated to accept that nomination given the credentials I’ve already summarised for you, for the incumbent Nelson Chamisa. Anyone who accepts nomination will probably be guilty of a serious political miscalculation, given where we are. We are all individuals, using all the objective criteria that I have in mind, I really have a difficulty in finding any rationale for anyone to accept any nomination, my sense too, I will be surprised if anyone other than Chamisa is nominated given the momentum that we have had with him, given the inspirational advantage that he has.

Ncube said the party members should stop canvassing for nominations. He said he would accept nomination for any position but not the presidency.
