According to reports from Radio SW Africa written by Lance Guma, ZANU-PF [Mugabe] is planning a crackdown against MDC Members in Matabeleland, Mashonaland, Masvinga, and Manicaland according to secret documents that were leaked. The Matoboland District of Matabeleland South will be the first to affected by the crackdown.

In an article by Raymond Mhaka of the Zimbabwe Metro, On the day of election, George Charamba had stated that "Tsvangerai had 50% of the vote to avoid a runoff and the results were rigged and needed to be corrected". The following was taken from the Zimbabwe Metro and The Herald [ZANU-PF: Mugabe] as stated by George Charamba: "Quite a clever posture, if you ask me. But never important enough to decide who governs Zimbabwe after those 21 days. What does is whoever rouses the sleeping vote which materially is a Zanu-PF vote. The MDC knows this, and so does the British. Which is why there was a bit of desperation to stampede both Government and ZEC into announcing faulty results that would have rigged Tsvangirai into an outright win. Or triggering civil unrest to open the way for international mediation which would have handed power over to Tsvangirai. ‘
