The main wing of the MDC led by Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai has accused its coalition partners the Mutambara MDC and Zanu PF of colluding to sabotage crucial unity government talks.

While the negotiators of the major political parties met on Monday at 10am to deliberate on the sticking matters, the negotiators from Mutambara’s grouping failed to turn up.

‘Professor Welshman Ncube and Hon Priscillah Misihairabwi Mushonga have chosen to prioritise flying to world capitals at the expense of resolving critical issues that will deliver real change to the people of Zimbabwe,’ the MDC-T said.

‘The deadline set by the SADC troika for the resolution of outstanding issues has once again been missed because of the intransigence, mischief and insincerity exhibited by the political players who are not taking the plight of the people of Zimbabwe seriously,’ the party added.

Ncube and Mushonga are arguing that they had prior engagements before the latest meetings were put together.

MDC-T officials however hit back saying there was nothing more important than solving the pressing unity government issues in the country.
