FULL TEXT – Over the past two days the state-owned Herald newspaper has been running with a false story that Western governments had summoned the MDC to arrange funding for the party.
The publications give an impression that the state newspapers had an interview with our Secretary- General, Mr Douglas T. Mwonzora.
At no point did our Secretary- General have the interview with the state papers or anyone else for that matter on the subject. The reports are therefore false.
Further, the MDC is very much aware that the governments mentioned do not fund political parties. it is therefore the height of absurdity to even imply that these governments had invited the MDC.
The main sources of funding for the MDC are the political parties funding under the Political Parties (Finance Act) and the subscriptions from its members. The party has no other source of funding.
It is false therefore that the MDC will be visiting the countries mentioned in order to transact the business mentioned.The false publication is meant to justify the denial of the MDC of its share of the funds under the Political Parties (Finance) Act.
Yesterday, our Secretary-General wrote to the Herald setting the facts correct but this has fallen on deaf ears.

Its public knowledge that the West funded MDCT as regime change agenda. Muroyi Bennet used to reap donations from the West and few ex Rhodesian farmers to fund MDCT. The funds may have been reduced , but its not a lie that MDCT will be fund raising in the West in preparation for 2018!. During the height of that funding, academics such as Dr Magaisa would join the party on sabbatical to reap better remuneration. Donors used to fall over heels also to oil MDCT activities. The fatigue got hold of donors after the 2013 elections, won by ZANUPF! It is therefore not plausible for MDCT to deny attempts to get back funding from the West, especially the evil Uniteds, US/UK!
