Article-Summary: 

Zimbabwe's opposition Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) alleged on Sunday that voters in a key southwestern by-election have been bribed with food and intimidated into voting for the ruling party. Voters in the poor, famine-hit rural district of Insiza were told "they will be given maize only if the Zanu PF candidate wins," the MDC claimed in a statement.
