Mwonzora’s political career in limbo

MDC leader Douglas Mwonzora’s political career hangs by a thread after suffering setbacks in recent days, including losing a court challenge where he wanted elections postponed.

On Tuesday this week, MDC Alliance principals, a coalition of parties that contested the 2018 elections under the MDC banner, fired him as their leader citing gross incompetence.

A day before, Mwonzora had lost a Constitutional Court application seeking to invalidate the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC)’s delimitation report.
