become relatively normal with the economic struggle that the country's been seeing for the past several months so dozens of people protesting in their cities in the towers in the villages is not something that generally makes the news but what we have seen in the last forty eight hours is dozens of protesters in a few pockets around the country turning into hundreds in main cities in multiple provinces and that's really what is interesting here we also saw or have heard unconfirmed reports of small demonstrations yesterday and the day before in the capital but what is interesting is that about an hour outside of the capital in carriage there were a few dozen people to try to set fire to a mosque there were demonstrations there but the police sure did that attempt to burn down a mosque what we're seeing is the number of protesters are swelling people who came out protesting economic conditions those slogans are now turning into more political chants government protesters are also coming out not just people protesting the economy and what we're also seeing now is

a government effort to try and quell that as soon as possible there is a very large police presence out on the street not just in the capital to run but in several places around the country and that's likely a response to a call by several anti-government media organizations based outside the country that have called for another round of protests to take place later today. the other one says it's ramping up efforts to stop foreign interference. the upcoming midterm elections homeland security and the f.b.i. say they're doing all they can to deal with anyone trying to influence voters or attack election software alan fischer reports now from washington d.c. happened in two thousand and six two they're known as the big beasts of intelligence gathering and law enforcement in the u.s. in an unshared told appearance they arrived in the white house press briefing room to insist they were better prepared to combat foreign interference in the upcoming u.s. midterm elections the president has specifically directed us to make the matter of

a milestone and zimbabwe's history the first in which longtime leader robert mugabe did not take part but days after that vote there have been protests and a violent crackdown rulings they know p.f. won the majority of seats in parliament but the opposition says the vote was unfair or transparent at the u.n. e.u. and the commonwealth have all urged calm responding to the violence president emerson agogo offered thoughts and prayers for the families affected and use twitter to call for an end dependent investigation into wednesday's post election violence which killed at least three people he says he's been talking to his opposition rival nelson chamisa to defuse the situation but zimbabwe's home minister says the government will keep the military on the streets for the time being. under the command of the police. forces. that remain deployed. across the country to menton law and order the government of zimbabwe. to seize food responsibility. for the. destruction

of property. to sea islands the commonwealth election observers are asking zimbabwe's looked royal commission to release the full results they also denounce what they call an excessive use of force by security forces. we can lead the knowns the excessive use of force against civilians and wish to engage all parties to exercise restraint zimbabwe electoral commission to exploit its the announcements of. results. that the least creates opportunities for six the coalition about possible manipulation of the results before we bring in our guests let's take a look at the timeline of how we got here last november following mass protests and military intervention president robert mugabe stepped down after thirty seven years in power the same month it was replaced by emerson minh agogo who had previously

served as vice president and god promised to bring change she called general elections and and bided international observers to monitor them twenty three candidates were on the presidential ballot but the main contenders are minute and the opposition m.d.c. nelson chamisa. let's bring in our guests now and harare ebo mendonsa he's a director of the trust joining us from london joseph a journalist and former columnist at the new african magazine also in the zimbabwe capital ernest would say the harare media center welcome to all of you appreciate your time very much if i want to start with you the election commission as we said has already announced some of the results they announced one hundred forty seats for zeno p.f. in parliament and fifty eight for the m.d.c. alliance yet both sides are claiming victory what are they basing that on.

because of the counted as the nature of the backdrop to the election. we wanted to go back to the coup in the field in the november. twenty seven two if you remember one of the reason is the military gaev. for. undertaking the coup was that was the fear that zanu p.f. would lose the elections in twenty two with a bit of insight it's clear that to the extent that the party was on a pier became very militarized in the form first and foremost of the appointment of former general to gauge as the political. and the subsequent process in which some one hundred twenty sitting m.p.'s lost their primaries it was clear that zanu p.f. was putting in place a move through to the structure across the country and this explains in many

respects the kind of result which a merging almost against the grain in the rural areas the biggest and most significant machinery that constitutes the riggin missionary in zanu p.f. has always been into mutation and clearly the report position would have been intimidated sufficiently to bring about a result was quite different from what it was expected ok let me bring us again is a situation in which you know go ahead i'm sorry which it appeared that that the route that the opposition was now able to infiltrate or operate in the in the in areas in which they had not been able to do so in the previous elections there is a lot of first submission order to make ok just i want to ask the same question to you both sides are are claiming victory and of course we haven't actually gotten to

the official results for the president yet but both sides are claiming victory what are they basing that on. i think it's interesting because hearing from our the colleague in harare the parliamentary election results shows a clear victory for zanu p.f. in parliamentary terms i think my concern really is something which is consistent with what the commonwealth observers of say and that is that probably the that is sufficient reason to ask why the continued late for the release of the presidential elections but then if we are basically using common sense to indicate that and to confirm that zanu p.f. substantially worn the majority of for the parliamentary seats it is very likely that the results of the presidential elections would show victor except it has been accepted that i think the presidential elections would be slightly micro closer but quickly i think my calls on those these that i'm to really the day of fourteen. no party really necessarily raises the kind of course stands which are being raised at

the moment campaigns are generally by life free and fair political parties jaws candidates of their choices and went around campaigning i'm just wondering whether or not it's done a p.f. did not necessarily get the opposition off shoot and then they call organised themselves quite in a to do when they called elections focused where their voices are really which is mainly arisen by probably the m.d.c. played on the numbers that they go to and indeed they got many many many people trying out of their alleys but forgetting that actually literally numbers it's not necessarily the outcome of an election when it comes to the real ballot but what ballot papers and ballot boxes and they are is a lot to get issues and we're going to circle back to those first i want to pose the same question though to ernest's and earn a second tell you having a bit of a technical issue hearing so i hope you can you can hear the question but the question is both sides are are claiming victory what are they basing that on do they have any legitimate basis to make those claims. yeah he never committed to the

collection i think he the m.d.c. alliance is saying they have one in the appointment of court and i think they are coins end mainly about the president of election they fear that there could be temporary that could be taking place with respect to there is out of the presidential election which the. country did know so any time issa is saying years one is actually saying years won the popular vote that's what the say the the there's been given the evidence in form of maybe. images or for the eleven forms i did they are saying that from what they did from the people on the ground there's one the popular vote that's what they are saying andy there are always saw alleging that he

. did the you looking at the situation in the country this was for them do we. want to fall. for an environment that doesn't want to meet free and fair elections and that that's that's basically i think what is coming from them ok i'm. all along the rule was that. the pres they results of the president will be announced with within five days and obviously the commission has already come out and announce the parliamentary seats but they haven't announced to who won the big when is a fact that there is that five day wait that five day period concern you or does it just mean it gives them more time to accurately count the votes you know it betrays it betrays the whole chicken or it only looks the process. normally

when the results are announced. they're announced all three bella's the presidential current constituency the problem entry and consolations significantly this time around there's been no mention of the presidential at all so it is it is justifiably. a lot of suspicion and speech and that the figures are being cooked especially given that on the first day of the election we know from reliable sources that the results were known already that night and that should be so as well it will hit. until the next morning that announcement or there was a kind of a sucrose law on the announcement of election results all together. and for the sick to claim that the reason for the delay has to do with the this is

a consultations with the president because these are absolute nonsense in my view we know the procedure we've known elections since independence whenever there's a delay such as we have had and in the world which we had in two thousand and eight it shows that there is something going on in the background so if so just a minute i want to bring an end to this and to me claire says that his sources told him that else and she said within the lead that that's based on his what he spent all we don't have any reporting to that but just are you concerned that these results the release of the results is being staggered. i am concerned that the release of the results may or may be used and are being used as a basis for making their legations slightly much more solid but i also must say that i think nelson chamisa say that i think on the polling day not only that he won the elections but that he was only prepared to accept the results that favor him i think that was slightly worrying of the time but beyond that to be between

then and today there hasn't really been a marked evidence except this pickle if you will the speculation as presented now but as a save much earlier if there is also of the parliamentary elections are to go by i think there is evidence of some fish and reason to believe that actually ran like it would be very difficult to suggest that necessarily one of the of could have won up to seventy percent in parliamentary terms and then guy had to lose the presidents which is still possible into it but one thing though is this we forget that the climate being suggested zanu p.f. yes was acting on the dancing up to november last year and that were actually hardy huge amount of goodwill across the country being seen as the guy who got rid of mugabe and created a new space and they've been bombed like generally very very consolatory to the extent that actually they're presenting about now that they're willing to be able to talk to the position so i think it's very possible that maybe even people who might might have voted. m.d.c.

probably eight or so months ago to simply simply say that look actually less go with this man with the star cheer him on with who is it likely to guarantee our security and stability whether or not we necessarily support it is a different thing but other moment i think unfortunately we're talking slightly much more speculation i think the onus is slightly much more on to the opposition to presenting their evidence so look so i want to go back to that so yes you said that nelson chamisa had gone into the saying that he won't accept anything other than winning does that set undermine institutions and undermine trust and instead. to sions i think part of the problem is that. we're only and this election is going to be very critical after the election after november last year we had robert mugabe mugabe who was very poor allies if you go on the one side. and on the leg the late morgan trying right now both guys are north there but at the same time when mugabe was solidly bought by his under p.f.

under this this state institutions trying gray was seen to be bucked and propped by external forces particularly the european union and the waste now where we are at the moment zimbabwe is a basically just trying to find a way of coming in between so really this peaceful. course of action i should of course illusion if you like is this electoral process and that's why it's extremely important that whatever happens over the next two days that we have results which hopefully is accepted book by both sides what's interesting though is under p.f. issued a press statement to give a press conference might a short while ago in which they were not really calling for calm but actually showing and extending the hands of friendship to the opposition i think extremely one of the chamisa and women and i don't really talk but actually their conversation has led to my one probably over the next critical perhaps twenty four hours talking a lot about transparency so earnest let me ask you this when robert mugabe stepped

down after relatively no violence just a lot of public pressure a lot of protests were you encouraged about what could happen in the next election . i although as the the formal for president mugabe to some people actually ideas i'm all about see when i looked to the best godly look the edge of the situation is a situation of continuing to do as basically design of the of system that was to continue as all to me to did indian style or more so when one considers that he the million dollar was said to descend over elections that have been disputed before you look at in two thousand and eight they merely dad why did they send the the at one point doug really nice t.v. they actually declared that they would not accept a lead on the salute and one without even the liberation or going to go so they waited to send out indie when they took over from mugabe i don't see it was does

need to continue with the at a very old desisted and d. to me to did in the style of these anything to me it was a very dangerous president away zimbabweans now we have the yeasty over cool we didn't the mideast. so not much will hope when the well well well when i look at the time i think i always have to go back to the issue of who there is out where we are why doesn't go as you but i'd like pointed out that why not you announce today that there is always going to cut into why why not why it took us big do this in article two thousand and eight when i was with late whenever results are delayed the feeling is that the there is a cooking that is taking place either maybe to create there are no scenario or maybe to run away from iran or scenario or whatever there is no such bishan in the room i will find that this is being caused by the fact that the we are taking long

we have there is out why not you yet again is ours then the people will see what is on the ground let me bring eva back into this conversation then leading up to this what do you see as maybe what was lacking an election laws in the election process leading up to this day could have prevented some of this i think just three things were first of all i think the previous speaker not not the noticed someone was speculating way to be speculating that you could have a situation that could be a correlation between what has received as the. parliamentary results and the possibility for that to go would be that we know there's been a mine do that into things other than eight hundred p. if it two thirds majority in parliament but mugabe lost to to. it is where zanu m.p.'s won comfortably but when garbage as a presidential candidate lost in many constituencies sometimes the five to one. so

that's the first element on i want to point out and indications by those doing doing apparel counting indicate clearly that mr is way ahead the second thing i want to make a point or to make is that i think we have been naive to expect that. there would be a free fair and credible election under military giunta. one of the reasons for the coup in november was the fear that dunn of p.f. would lose the election twenty eight does it was naive to expect that the military would allow. a free fair and free fair and credible election let alone. allow the opposition to win so let me bring the third is that of course it appears to me that we have a situation in which if it is true that the nuclear physics the election that they have rigged themselves into a hole because you have this amazing and incredible result in which they're having

more than two thirds majority completely incredible in the face of the reality that we have been watching outsells at home since november last year and in which clearly in my view they were they should have been a correlation between the massive turnout for chemise across the country in some eighty rallies. on the one hand and the possible outcome in which they should have been a landslide for the opposition in general and for some reason particular so i mean the contrast between the turnout for for younger and that for sure mr. was incredible. evil on the hands and the element and therefore it points it points to the points very clearly to my view manipulated election ok i think the delay makes it a little difficult i didn't want to cut you off but i did want to bring joseph into this and again these are laser these are accusations and allegations from about

whether this was wrigley don't know that yeah we need to make that clear but joseph i do want to bring up the point that he said that he felt that he feels that it was naive to think that after everything that elections had been in zimbabwe that something would be different this time do do you agree that an action that is a fair point including on there was a vision i made by charlie about seal i come back to it it's not necessarily new that political party i mean it's not necessarily new that part of the argument we're having is a real of all the presidents rather than parliamentary elections and i think i want to as a somebody who's followed zimbabwean follows off going to lectures very closely all we would be doing is that what are basically the evidence that parliamentary elections have been rigged number one number two nobody really complained with the coup if you like of november last year and rest will come to including the opposition so same comment upon them to basically present it but for the moment

really i think we shouldn't forget but maybe mr mugabe who was very central to these. who decided to and also mr chairman is whether or not they did it in caution in in course out or not is a different issue maybe it couldn't have been a factor because the robert mugabe the mom decided to box and he said this time if he did so how do we know about maybe it if that did not necessarily impact on the outcome of this and this entire process now in terms of what happened to him last year i'm not necessarily sure whether it was simply because you could say that zanu p.f. stage managed this process not the fact that mugabe is as as only. he's quite clearly sure that when this was much more bought and then a matter of his internals on a p.f. i dispute nothing to do with election but at the same time yes a number of people both inside and also the opposition is one of the of who generally believe that actually they needed to go beyond got on they needed to be able to have if raising above and if i may say so given the majority of the if you

like white population that we're party to this process bomb like wellcome the process then i'm leaving for this election we're coming in. ok arnest we're going to actually have the last word on this there has been. criticism from the e.u. . saying from the election observers saying that actually take them out there's been a lot of good things they said that this is a very good process so far but there's still some serious concerns that remain do you think that those types of outside criticisms all make any kind of difference. yeah i will now. yes the e.u. is the c.b.s. convent in fact if you look at the day he will report and to convey it to egypt that is the african union and to the south into the african development community report you'll find out that today as similarities in terms of content being as they
