PRESIDENT Emmerson Mnangagwa will tomorrow meet members of
the Political Actors Dialogue (Polad) at his Kwekwe farm.
The government confirmed the meeting, saying it was centred
around production and will include a tour of the farm.
Polad is made up of the MDC-T led by Thokozani Khupe, the
National Constitutional Assembly led by Lovemore Madhuku and many other small
parties.
The meeting comes as MDC leader Nelson Chamisa has called
for the non-inclusion of Polad in talks between his party and Zanu PF, saying
the coming in of the actors will confuse the process as they have their own
agendas.
Polad was created by Mnangagwa after the disputed 2018
elections to dialogue with losers in the presidential poll.
Chamisa, however, refused to be part of the process, saying
meaningful dialogue should be between his party and Zanu PF and should address
the legitimacy issue first.
While the MDC leader has refused to recognise Mnangagwa as
the legitimate President, Polad members have, however, recognised him and are
working with him.
The meeting comes days after the visit by former South
African President Thabo Mbeki to initiate dialogue among political actors.
“The President has invited all members of Polad for them to
appreciate what he is doing at the farm,” presidential spokesperson George
Charamba said yesterday. Newsday
