CCC launches poll drive tomorrow

OPPOSITION Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) leader Nelson Chamisa is set to launch his party’s election campaign in Gweru, Midlands province, tomorrow after last week’s false start.

Police blocked Chamisa from launching his election campaign in Bindura, Mashonaland Central province, last Sunday saying the chosen venue was not suitable for a large gathering, citing lack of ablution facilities.

CCC has been facing hurdles in holding campaign rallies in the run-up to the August 23 elections, with police citing various reasons for not sanctioning the gatherings.
