MDC Alliance party led by Nelson Chamisa yesterday welcomed government plans to amend the Constitution to allow for easier implementation of devolution.
The MDC Alliance’s shadow local government minister Sesel Zvidzai concurred that while delays in implementing devolution might have prejudiced provinces of development, the latest announcement and commitment towards devolution by the government was welcome.
Said Zvayi:
