It would look like that, wouldn't it, when you look at the picture above?<br /><br />I must say though, you can see some young people in there behind "the elders" at the front.<br /><br />Seriously though: first, the leadership in place now is an interim leadership drawn from the volunteers. A substantive leadership will be elected in all the provinces in the lead up to the party inauguration.<br /><br />Second, Makoni was very forceful in all the meetings that I attended of the Steering Committee about the need to make this a PARTY OF YOUTH.<br /><br />He succeeded and the party's Standing Rules say that at all levels of leadership (from grassroots, Province to the National Leadership) a MINIMUM of 40% of the elected officials should be BELOW the age of 35.<br /><br />So I am not worried on that account.<br /><br />Also, I hope there are some wise old men in the final leadership line-up. It would enrich the party to have a few white heads in it, to give wise counsel!!Denfordhttp://denfordmagora.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-960370043342228756.post-13187141796122207592009-07-02T17:24:32.527+02:002009-07-02T17:24:32.527+02:00Goodwill Mpofu

Pathetic!<br /><br />From the media reports, can you imagine only two names have been released as constituting the leadership - iye Makoni wacho and Godfrey Chanetsa.<br /><br />Why should they take people for granted.Goodwill Mpofunoreply@blogger.com
