Khupe Snubbed My Offer To Form A Coalition Of Female Candidates: Mujuru

People’s Rainbow Coalition (PRC) presidential candidate, Joice Mujuru has said that Thokozani Khupe’s MDC-T ignored her when she reached out. Mujuru wanted to form a coalition with Khupe so that they do not split votes. Speaking at a public election discussion forum in Harare, Mujuru said,

I wish all women could have joined hands together so that we accumulate lots of votes from mostly women, youths and the disabled and men too. I approached the leader of the MDC-T, Khupe and I did not get a reply and this obviously has a bearing on the outcome of the votes. The people from Khupe’s camp promised to come back to me so that we map the way forward but up until today I am yet to get a response.

However, Khupe said that she was unaware of the offer and dismissed the assertion that the female candidates would split the vote among themselves. Said Khupe,

Let us look at reality. Are you saying of the 23 presidential candidates who are contesting, only votes will be split among the women candidates?

The two other female candidates contesting in the July 30 presidential election are  Melbah Dzapasi, leader of #1980 Freedom Movement and Violet Mariyacha of United Democracy Movement (UDM).
