39 defect from Professor Mutambara's party to rejoin MDC
Movement for Democratic Change
August 13, 2010

At least 39 members from the Arthur Mutambara-led political formation, including four national Executive members, have today rejoined the real MDC led by President Morgan Tsvangirai. The entire main wing, women and youth wings of the party's structures in Mashonaland Central, have all rejoined the people's party.

Addressing journalists at a press conference in Harare today, former secretary for Transport in Mutambara's party Edwin Dzambara said they have left the party because of a lot of reasons which include the lack of vision and strategy by the party's leaders. "The MDC led by Mutambara is a Zanu PF extension, which lacks vision, progress and strategic approach to win elections," said Dzambara.

"We salute all MDC-M councillors who have rejoined MDC-T as we shall continue to mobilize and organize each other in order to make sure that everyone joins MDC-T. More councillors are rejoining MDC-T in the following weeks." Dzambara urged all his former party's supporters to rejoin the MDC.

Their defection coincides with the party's current programme to galvanise party structures across the country. We are bigger together. We are winners together.
