#ElectionsZW: I will win in Kambuzuma says Fungai Chiposi
MDC Alliance candidate Fungai Chiposi is confident of winning the Kambuzuma Constituency by-elections.
Zimbabwe is set to hold by-elections for vacant National Assembly seats and local authority seats on the 26th of March.
The by-elections are a result of recalls that happened in MDC-T and Zanu PF due to factional fights.
A few other seats are vacant as a result of the death of officeholders.
In Kambuzuma, Chiposi will fight for the seat with Willias Madzimure (Citizens Coalition for Change), and Oscar Nyamunokora (Zanu PF).
During an interview, Chiposi assured the media that he was going to win the elections. He also took the opportunity to thank other candidates for giving him competition.
‘’I can assure you that MDC Alliance candidate called Fungai Chiposi is going to win, I cannot speak for other political parties, I wish them well we are in a democracy, and I welcome their competition,’’ he said.
According to Chiposi, once he is elected, he will ensure everyone in the constituency is constantly consulted.
‘’To the people of Kambuzuma, I ensure them people-driven participation in the House of Parliament. What has happened before is that our Parliamentarians have not fully consulted with the people in terms of the issues that need to be in the National Assembly.
‘’I promise to be consulting people, it does not matter whether you are going to vote for me in these particular elections or not, I will still come back to you and make sure that your issues and desires are heard in Parliament,’’ he said.
Why Chiposi dumped Southerton for Kambuzuma
On why he dumped Southerton Constituency, Chiposi said he was asked by the party to represent it in Kambuzuma instead.
‘’There are a number of reasons that had happened for me to contest in Southerton, but at the moment the party has asked me to stand in Kambuzuma.
‘’I will be able to represent the people of Kambuzuma because our constituencies are next to each other, we also have the same demographic in Southerton and Kambuzuma,’’ he said
