  • Harare - Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe's ruling Zanu-PF party has lost its majority in parliament, according to figures announced by the electoral commission on Wednesday.

    Latest results gave the opposition Movement for Democratic Change 105 seats while an independent candidate, Mugabe's former information minister Jonathan Moyo, also retained his seat in the 210-member chamber.

    The results mean that Zanu-PF, on 93 seats with only a handful of results still to be announced, has lost its parliamentary majority.

      Finally
    02/04/2008 17:43
    Finally something is going well in Africa. Maybe this should be a warning to the ANC that banging on the stories of the past eventually gets outweighed by what you do now, eventually poor service and arrogance catches up to you. - Pangea
     
      zim vs aus..?

      Good times ahead

    Congratulations to MDC and the brave voters that hung in there to deliver an historic victory against tyranny. I hope Zim can now be more like South Korea and leave behind the shattered "North Korean" state that was created by Mugabe. Maybe in the spirit of reconciliation the generals, ministers an other beneficiaries of the kleptocracy can give back their ill-gotten gains in exchange for immunity from prosecution. Good luck, good governing, and away with the security apparatus of the state. - Mukiwa

    One word coming from a Zimbo, show me Jacob Zuma now and i'll show you Robert Mugabe 20 years ago... The enthusiasm being displayed by SAs at electing a less than credible leader is amazing... At least Mugabe has something to show for it back then. - Luchie Marumahoko

    02/04/2008 19:05
    I am not yet ready to agree and conviced by the MDC claiming victory over last week's Presidential and Parliamentary victory over the ZANU-PF. Whre is the MDC and Morgan from. I mean who supports and finance him? Africans don't be fooled by those selfish whites in Europe and South Africa to hate Father Mugabe who giving the African Land to the rightful people of Zimbabwe and challenged the British monorchy. Brtain don't spoil us. - Pinehas Macacu Amadhila
     
      Morgan Should Claim Victory in England
    02/04/2008 19:57
    In response to Pinehas Macacu We the 4 million economic refugees scattered across the globe support Morgan and finance him. We want to go back to our beloved Zimbabwe and rebuild a great nation that we are. Yes we will become the South Korea with our skills and perserverance. How many of the people have received land and we are starving enough is enough. God has heard the call of us Zimbabweans. Morgan has been with us for 8 years. Our time has come to end tyranny. - Patrick Moyo
