The MDC Alliance is taking ZEC to court over the printing
of the ballot papers.
‘’We are going to court on Tuesday and we are going to be
supported by our lawyers , we want to know where the ballot paper was printed
where it is coming from and who is keeping the ballot,” Tendai Biti told
supporters in Mutasa at the weekend.
“This election is about hope, the people of Zimbabwe need
change, the people of this country need transformation, prosperity and
opportunities,” he said.
Biti also said that the alliance will file an urgent court
application at the High Court today against the Zimbabwe National Water Authority
chief executive officer Jefta Sakupwanya to cancel his candidature for Mutare
Central Parliamentary seat.
The Alliance said Sakupwanya candidature was
unconstitutional as he was still occupying a public office.
“Sakupwanya is the chief executive officer of Zinwa but the
constitution does not allow you to take part if you are occupying a public
office,”he said.
“So his candidature is illegal and unconstitutional, he is
abusing state resources and we are told that they are using Zinwa cars here to
campaign,” he said.
