Harare - Zimbabwe's Movement for
Democratic Change (MDC) opposition party is preparing a court
application to force the election commission to release results
from Monday's national ballot, a senior MDC official said on
Tuesday.
Tendai Biti, a former finance minister, said some election
results that were supposed to be posted outside voting stations
were not available.
Biti has told reporters: “We have received information that VP Chiwenga has issued an order to assassinate Nelson Chamisa and myself”
He also says Govt has hired Romanians to create fake news to tarnish the MDC Alliance.

The election, the first since the removal of Robert Mugabe
last November, is a two-horse race between MDC leader Nelson
Chamisa and President Emmerson Mnangagwa. Biti said it was clear
Chamisa had won. No official results have been released.
