INTERNAL MEMORANDUM

FROM: Secretary General

TO: All National Council, National, Provincial, District and Ward Executive
Members
RE: MDC-T EXTRA ORDINARY CONGRESS - DECEMBER 2020
I read with dismay a statement purportedly coming from our Information and
Publicity department, which alludes to the selective invitation of 2014 structures to
the Extra Ordinary Congress. My view as the Secretary General has always been
clear, that we need a united party to emerge out of our Extra Ordinary Congress.
We must be reminded that Chamisa and all he purports to command are MDC-T
structures. The Composite Political Agreement (Alliance Agreement) is clear on
the independence of individual political parties and it clearly spells out that all the
parties revert back to their individual identities after elections. Going forward, I am
fully in support of all MDC-Alliance members participating at our Extra Ordinary
Congress. All the five (5) potential presidential candidates including myself have
agreed that our legitimacy as elected leaders can only be achieved when all MDC-
T 2014 structures are allowed to participate and vote at the Extra Ordinary
Congress. While I do not agree with how Harare Province youth assembly
chairperson, Paul Gorekore went about taking over Morgan Richard Tsvangirai
House, I must however point out that I agree and support the notion of a united
front against a brutal Mnangagwa regime. I am therefore currently working with
the national organising secretary, Abednico Bhebhe in verifying bona fide 2014
delegates. I am also aware of the fact that our chairperson, Senator Morgen
Komichi and Honourable Bhebhe are being updated daily on the developments
unfolding at our party headquarters and thus the involvement of police in
repossessing our headquarters is not an option at this stage. Our main priority for
now is to unite the entire MDC family. Let us all work hard towards a successful
and undisputed Extra Ordinary Congress in December.
