The Coalition of Democratic Parties (CODE) will field candidates in all the 210 constituencies to ensure nationwide representation during the 2023 elections.

CODE vice chairperson Mr Dereck Lupemba said in the 2018 elections, they failed to field candidates in all constituencies due to lack of resources.

“We are going to field candidates all the 210 constituencies throughout the country, something we have not been able to do in the last elections due to limited resources.

“We will continue mobilising our youths and we continue to also mobilise our people throughout the country and we should be able to field candidates in all the constituencies in the coming elections.

“Our achievement so far is that we have managed to convert CODE into a single political party,” he said.
CODE participated in the 2018 elections after bringing together two parties.

“We sat down as the national executive council and as the various political parties that had coalesced under the CODE banner and we resolved to collapse our political parties into one entity which is the CODE party. These were the Zimbabwe First party and the Renewal Democratic Party of Zimbabwe (RDZ),” he said.

He urged the Government to put more effort in educating the youth on the effects of corruption.
