MDC-T Far From Dead- Mwonzora

 

The Spokesperson of the Movement for Democratic Change led by Morgan Tsvangirai, Douglas Mwonzora, has vowed that his party will bounce back and defeat Zanu PF in the next elections.

Speaking at a public meeting in the capital on Thursday, Mwonzora said his party has the capacity to rise again.
“MDC- T has changed the political landscape in Zimbabwe; it is the strongest political party to ever grace Zimbabwe’s political landscape.
“Morgan Tsvangirai has the capacity to rule Zimbabwe again, like he did in 2008. Beware of a white wash 2018,” he added.
However, Zanu- PF Deputy Director from the Information and Publicity, Comrade Psychology Maziwisa said the MDC party was destined for the dustbins of history and that its future was hinged on the person controlling the party.
“The future of any political party lies in the calibre of the person leading that party; as long as Tsvangirai continues to be the leader of that party, MDC-T should forget.
Mwonzora said MDC- T was grounded on Nelson Mandela’s principle that says a sinner is a saint who keeps on trying.
“For all these years Tsvangirai has been fighting for change, revolution did not end in 1980,” Mwonzora said.
In spite of its elections defeat in the July 31 polls, the MDC- T party maintains that the 2013 elections did not reflect the true wishes of the people of Zimbabwe.
“This election was not an election at all, we were denied access to the voter’s roll, there was rampant abuse of state security agency, monopolization of the media and promotion of hate media by the public media.” Mwonzora said.

Econet Introduces EcocashSave

Zimbabwe’s largest telecommunications provider, Econet Wireless Zimbabwe (EWZ) has introduced an additional service to its growing EcoCash brand which will allow customers to move their money to a bank account.

The new service launched in partnership with Steward Bank EcocashSave will enable citizens to operate a bank account through mobile phones.

Speaking at the press conference, Econet Wireless Zimbabwe, CEO Douglas Mboweni said the service was not only a new product in the market but a solution to Zimbabwe’s million people currently in unbanked bars.

Mboweni added that the service was motivated by the great principle to identify a need in society and provide a solution.

“EcocashSave is a service grounded on transforming people’s lives. Technology that does not transform people’s lives and without a positive impact to society is useless,” Mboweni said.

Speaking at the same occasion, Kwanele Ngwenya, Chief Executive Officer for Steward Bank said the service was a groundbreaking innovation set to deliver and change lives of the people and their relationship with the banks.

“Steward bank has brought banking to the unbanked,” Ngwenya said.

EcoCash CEO, Mr. Darlington Mandivenga said saving money with Ecocash was easy, convenient and built on the grounds for people to achieve their dreams and to become better entrepreneurs.

Over 3 million people in Zimbabwe now use Ecocash to send and receive money through the more than 7000 agents dotted throughout Zimbabwe.
