MDC senators snub Sona debate

SENATE yesterday sat for only 25 minutes after just two senators from Zanu PF contributed to the debate on the motion in reply to President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s State of the Nation (Sona) address, while their MDC Alliance counterparts snubbed the motion.

MDC Alliance legislators in both Houses have been showing disinterest in contributing to the debate on the Sona speech. The party’s vice-president Morgen Komichi, who is also leader of the opposition in Senate, told NewsDay that the party would not legitimise Mnangagwa by contributing to the motion on his speech.
