One of the MDC Vice Presidents will be a female, the party’s
national council has resolved.
National spokesman, Jacob Mafume said “The National Council
also resolved to reserve a seat for a female Vice President and modalities for
the same shall be finalized by the Electoral Commission.”
On the other contested positions he said :”All nominees
have been given up to Tuesday to accept nominations or to withdraw. Where more
than two candidates accept the nomination, they are encouraged to discuss in
the spirit of consensus building.
The Electoral Commission shall then produce ballots on
every position where more than one candidate decide to contest. The positions
to be contested include the President, Vice President, National Chairperson,
Secretary General and Treasurer General.
The party mandated the Commission to organise Caucuses for
those contesting each other to table before members and the public what they
will offer the party and country if elected.
These debates shall be open to the public, the media and
shall be streamed live on the Party’s official social media platforms for
everyone to see. The Commission shall appoint independent moderators for these
debates.
