MDC Wars, 10 More MPs Recalled As Khupe Strikes Back

Speaker of the National Assembly Advocate Jacob Mudenda has this afternoon announced the expulsion from Parliament of 10 MDC Alliance MPs.

This came after the MDC-T party wrote to the House saying they were no longer representing it.

The 10 are Eric Murai, Concilia Chinanzvavana, Earthrage Kureva, Dorcas Sibanda, Unganai Tarusenga, Lynette Karenyi-Kore, Prince Sibanda and Wellington Chikombo.

Adv Mudenda said he will soon inform President Mnangagwa and the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) on the existence of vacancies in terms of the Constitution.

The recall of the 10 is a culmination of 21 MPs the opposition party has recalled to date following leadership wrangle affecting the party.

The recalling of MDC-T MPs followed a Supreme Court ruling in April this year confering legitimacy to Dr Thokozani Khupe as the leader of the party. Nhau/Indaba
