Zimbabwe: Zanu PF and MDC agree to form unity government

Zanu PF and the Movement for Democratic Change agreed a power-sharing deal on Thursday to end the post election crisis in the country, both parties said.

This is the moment that Zimbabweans have been waiting for? The day Mugabe accepts to share power with the people’s choice Morgan Tsvangirai. We all remember how Tsvangirai was robbed of his victory on 29 March, and eventual Mugabe made himself President in his one man election on 27 June.

South African President Thabo Mbeki said Zanu PF and the MDC have agreed on all issues and a national unity government will be announced on Monday.

“I am absolutely certain that the leadership of Zimbabwe is committed to implementing these agreements … this is an outcome that comes out of decisions arrived at by the leadership of Zimbabwe,” Mbeki said.

“It’s made in Zimbabwe, it’s made by Zimbabweans, the rest of the world needs to respect that the people of Zimbabwe have taken a decision about their own country,” Mbeki said.

Regional leaders are expected to attend the signing ceremony on Monday.
