After the wholly unnecessary violent protests, we welcomed
the legal route which the MDC eventually took to challenge the elections.
We have independent courts and we promised to respect their
decision. Just as with the insights received from the international monitors,
we will implement all recommendations to further improve our democratic
process.
We were not surprised by the court’s decision. The election
results were firmly in line with all the pre-election polling, and were
entirely consistent with the final tally of ZESN, the largest body of
independent observers.
The observers also reiterated that this was the most
peaceful, transparent, and credible election Zimbabwe has ever had.
I once again reiterate my call for peace and unity above
all. Nelson Chamisa, my door is open and my arms are outstretched, we are one
nation, and we must put our nation first.
Let us all now put our differences behind us. It is time to
move forward together.
