Foreword
This country
needs to move away from centralization to devolution of power in
which local communities determine their destiny. The sad past of
this country can be blamed mainly on over concentration of power
on one person in which policy and decision making excluded the generality
of the citizenry. This can be changed! The future of Zimbabwe is
in your hands now. You can no longer have an excuse of having a
dysfunctional government taking lead in your lives. Movement for
Democratic Change has argued consistently that the prosperity and
well being of Zimbabweans lies not only in our ability to maintain
high industrial productivity, but also being able to govern ourselves
at community level. Control of our economic, social, political,
legal and technological life at the lowest level of governance is
the essence of devolution.
This 2013 Harmonised
Election Manifesto is a set of interlocking policies that, when
implemented together, make a real difference in people's lives over
time. As MDC, we have never had a full chance to govern and show
what we can do except for a few posts. Nonetheless, the few councillors,
Members of Parliament, Ministers and Senators who have been part
of the National
Government Unity since 2009 have shown immense capacity to deliver.
It is only your vote in this election that can elevate the party
to full National, Provincial and Local Governance so that once more
Zimbabweans can regain pride.
The policies
outlined in this Manifesto are a window to what MDC can do. If you
vote for us, you are choosing prosperity, wealth, jobs, affordable
health, quality education, fairness, justice and effective participatory
local governance. Do not condemn Zimbabwe and your own lives to
another five years of misery and poverty, corruption, violence and
unemployment by voting for other political parties.
The choice is
yours. Make the right choice. Vote for President Welshman Ncube,
MDC Green councilors, Members of Parliament and Senators in the
2013 Harmonized Elections. This is the time to make devolution
work. Devolution is indeed the new revolution!
