“That’s not a blame for us. Actually, it’s a very important integrity question. The fact that we are poor does not mean that we are poor in spirit, we are poor in our objective, we are poor in the resonation with the people, so the question that arises is that, if the MDC did not have sufficient funds, so what? We ran a brilliant campaign, I had 57 rallies that I undertook, so what is wrong with that? The MDC ran a brilliant campaign, the MDC had the support of the whole nation for change. Mugabe had a whole budget, US$100 million, supported by Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo from Equatorial Guinea, supported by (Joseph) Kabila, supported by diamonds, supported by Mbada (Diamonds) supported by Anjin, all that money was going into a pot to rig the elections, not to support the people of Zimbabwe who are hungry out there. If it is a comparison of resources, yes Zanu PF had overwhelming resources, because of the sources, because they were denying the fiscus, to access diamond money, to access any other resources.” - President Tsvangirai
