Transitional government can save Zim: Biti

People’s Democratic Party (PDP) leader Tendai Biti has called for the establishment of a transitional government to steer the country out of its current political and economic crisis and avoid civil unrest.

Addressing journalists in the capital yesterday, Biti said the ruling Zanu PF government had “dismally failed to address the crisis”.

“As far as we are concerned, given the acerbic cannibalistic fights in Zanu PF, it is clear that the nation has become paralysed, government has become paralysed and given the conflict that has been started – particularly the war among the factions now involving the war veterans, now involving part of the army – it is our submission as PDP that we are actually going through a chaos scenario,” he said.
