Below are some experts from the interview between Grace Kwinjeh, one of the founding members of the MDC and the Daily News on Sunday Assistant Editor Maxwell Sibanda.
Kwinjeh is a journalist, human rights advocate and also the MDC Alliance’s European Union representative based in Brussels.
Q: Do you see a woman President one day in Zimbabwe?
A: Oh yes indeed, there is a whole new generation of young men and women whose attitude towards life, politics, socialisation is different to the one I grew up in. I am elated when I see young MDC Alliance male youths enthusiastically campaigning for female candidates, it never happened in my time.
Look at Joan Mamombe’s campaign, the high votes she got and the political persona she represents. Yes, a female President is possible in my lifetime.
