All is set for the MDC Real Change Peace Rally on Sunday at Chibuku Stadium in Chitungwiza where President Tsvangirai will be the main speaker .

Thousands of MDC supporters are expected to attend the rally at which President Tsvangirai who will be accompanied by the party's senior leadership will touch on a number of issues affecting the party and the country.

The President is expected to speak on the life and health of the party ahead of the next year's free and fair elections, on the performance of the inclusive government in his capacity as the Prime Minister, this week's visit by President Jacob Zuma's facilitation team and the roadmap to a free and fair election.

President Tsvangirai is also expected to talk and denounce the increase of State sponsored violence across the country, the Constitution-making process and other issues that are daily affecting the people of Zimbabwe.

The rally comes a week after police in Matebeleland North province disrupted rallies that the President was supposed to address in Lupane and Victoria Falls although the rallies had been sanctioned by the High Court.
