MDC Not Bothered Over Launch Of 'Tyson Wabantu' Movement

The opposition MDC does not consider Saviour Kasukuwere a threat to its support base as he is a creation of the ruling ZANU PF party.

MDC president Nelson Chamisa’s spokesperson Nkululeko Sibanda refused to comment much on Kasukuwere’s “Tyson Wabantu” movement. Speaking To NewsDay on Friday, Sibanda said:

We don’t have to comment on that. Kasukuwere is former Zanu PF or Zanu PF, I think a comment from there would suffice. The MDC has had Kasukuwere as a political opponent. You know how we won elections when he was in politics. Why is that question even relevant?

Kasukuwere is a former ZANU PF bigwig and has been living in self-imposed exile in South Africa since the November 2017 military coup.

His movement, consisting of disgruntled former ZANU PF supporters, distributed flyers and T-shirts branded “Tyson Wabantu” in Bulawayo’s suburbs on Thursday.
