The late MDC leader, Morgan Tsvangirai's daughter, Vimbai says she is not a political novice.
“I did not start politics today. I have always been in politics since the formation of MDC. In fact, when my father started politics way before 1999, he called us as a family — meaning uncles, aunties, grandparents.

“We were the first supporters and members of MDC when it was formed, so we did not start politics today, we have always been there behind the scenes…
“I was the informal secretary of my father. We came for him here when my mother passed on, I came back to Zimbabwe and I have been working with my father. So handling politics, church and everything else has always been part of me.”
She is representing the MDC Alliance in Glen View South polls.
