MDC Statement
The MDC is absolutely delighted to hear that the Bulawayo High Court has granted bail to Chief Ndiweni

The charges against him are politically motivated and have no legal justification whatsoever.

The MDC would like to thank all its leaders and members, and the general public for turning out in their large numbers in active solidarity with Chief Ndiweni.
