Lance Guma This is a challenge from MDC-T spokesman Douglas Mwonzora What that shows you is that one meeting was fake and this is objectively verifiable. Whether a meeting forms quorum or not is something that is objectively verifiable. The National Council members of the MDC do not change. They were elected in 2011 so what one needs to do is to go to the various minutes of the National Council meetings over these years from 2011. The identity of the delegates must be the same. Now in the case of Biti’s meeting, the people who came to Mandel are different from the people who have always attended National Council meetings from 2011 to 2014. In the case of the meetings we held at Harvest House, you will see that the delegates are consistent from 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014. We have gone a step further. At the meeting of the National Council of 29 April at Harvest House, the members of the National Council filled affidavits on whether they had been invited in Mandel or not and those affidavits are there. So we have 167 members of the National Council who were not there at Mandel and the list is there. And the list can’t be compared to the historical list of the National Council so it’s objectively verifiable. The difference between Biti’s group and ourselves is that we are saying we have a list of people who attended. Biti’s group does not want to disclose their list. All they want to talk about is the number 138. But 138 persons doesn’t necessarily constitute a quorum, it must be 138 delegates of the National Council not 138 of anyone which is their meeting. So this is objectively verifiable and members of the National Council themselves have now written affidavits to say “We were on this meeting, we were not on that meeting.” We invite the Press, especially the public media, to come and inspect the registers.
