Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>The Movement for Democratic Change-Tsvangirai (MDC-T) says party president Douglas Mwonzora has not joined the Political Actors Dialogue (POLAD) platform.<\/p>\n

In a statement, MDC-T spokesperson Witness Dube said Mwonzora recently attended a meeting of POLAD interlocutors not because he had joined it but to talk to it about how it should be transformed. Said, Dube:<\/p>\n

At its last but one meeting the National Council resolved that we as MDC will only be part of POLAD under certain conditions.<\/p>\n

The main condition was that POLAD should create a platform of Political Parties in Parliament.<\/p>\n

Today President ED Mnangagwa invited our MDC President to a POLAD plenary at State House which he said was going to receive the MDC conditions for being part of POLAD.<\/p>\n

The invitation by President Mnangagwa is a follow-up to the numerous engagements on proposals for dialogue by the MDC.<\/p>\n

President Mwonzora presented the Party position to POLAD, and it was resolved that the POLAD principals will deliberate on the MDC position.<\/p>\n

Professor Madhuku, one of the principals, has already indicated that his party view the MDC proposals favourably and will be canvassing for their adoption as a dialogue roadmap.<\/p>\n

In August last year, Mwonzora\u2019s spokesperson Lloyd Damba said they were waiting for the formal invitation from the POLAD secretariat and the party would then consider joining the group.<\/p>\n
