Zimbabwe opposition confirms court challenge to election results
HARARE, Aug 8, 2018 (BSS/AFP) – Zimbabwe’s MDC opposition party on
Wednesday confirmed it would launch a legal challenge to President Emmerson
Mnangagwa’s narrow election victory, which it says was due to fraud.
“Those results represent a total negation of the will of the people,” MDC
lawyer Thabani Mpofu told reporters. “The election results made by ZEC
(Zimbabwe Electoral Commission) will be challenged.”
