President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s inauguration speech was refreshingly reflective of the well–grounded MDC policies such as the stimulation of industrial production, re–engagement with the broader community of nations, job creation and clamping down on rampant corruption including, of course, the rationalisation of the land reform program as well as the compensation of former white commercial farmers.Īs people listened to Mnangagwa’s inauguration speech, it basically sounded like he was reading from the MDC policy documents such as JUICE and ART. It is a politically party that has designed and adopted policies that deliberately take into account the interests of labour, the poor and the marginalised.

Ideologically, therefore, the MDC is on the left of centre. The MDC is a social democratic political party whose roots are firmly anchored in the labour movement. President Morgan Tsvangirai and other top leaders of the MDC were present at the National Sports Stadium in Harare on Friday, November, 24, 2017 when Emmerson Mnangagwa was inaugurated as the new President of the Republic of Zimbabwe after the resignation of former President Robert Mugabe on November 21, 2017.
