A ZBC camera was damaged by rain yesterday after MDC
Alliance supporters attending a rally at Mucheke Stadium in Masvingo yesterday
grabbed the umbrella that was shielding it.
It took the intervention of party’s presidential candidate,
Nelson Chamisa to get the umbrella back.
At a time when the media has been walking the path
affording all political parties coverage as mandated by the constitution and
electoral laws, the ZBC Masvingo news crew had a torrid time with the
opposition party’s rowdy supporters.
The party supporters snatched the umbrella demanding the
crew to leave the spot, forcing Chamisa to momentarily stop his address and
demand that the group returns the umbrella.
Turning to his address, Chamisa continued with his promises
saying if elected into office, he will introduce a multi-currency system,
something already functional in the Zimbabwean context.
It was equally a departure from his utterances at some
rallies where he has spoken about bringing in a currency stronger than the
Bristish pound or the US dollar.
Chamisa also told his supporters that he will also work on
ensuring the country’s transport sector is revitalised.
The MDC Alliance leader expressed confidence of winning the
elections but also accused the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) of being
biased towards Zanu PF.
