The MDC-T national council has expelled deputy president, Dr
Thokozani Khupe and Obert Gutu.
Morgen Komichi Deputy National Chairperson said :“On VP Khupe, the national council noted the efforts for
engagement made by the party President and the fact that VP Khupe remained
stubborn, obdurate, intransigent and spurned all party efforts to address her
grievances as she continued to hold illegal meetings and partake in
unconstitutional activities, putting the party into disrepute and undermining
the constitutional organs of the party. The national council therefore
resolved, by more than the mandatory two thirds of the vote that VP Khupe be
removed from the party in terms of the party constitution.
On National Chairperson Lovemore Moyo, the national
council formally accepted the resignation from the party by the national
chairman Mr Lovemore Ndodana Moyo which he has tendered to the leadership. The
council wished him well in all his future endeavors.
On organising secretary Hon. Abednigo Bhebhe, the national
council by the more than the mandatory two thirds of the vote resolved to
remove him from the party on allegations of his unconstitutional behavior and
for continuously putting the party into disrepute.
On suspended party spokesperson Mr. Obert Chaurura Gutu,
the national council resolved by a unanimous vote to expel suspended party
spokesperson Mr Obert Chaurura Gutu.
The national council further resolved that those leaders
that have ceased to be members of the party but who are in Parliament, in
particular VP Khupe and Organizing Secretary Abednigo Bhebhe, be recalled with
immediate effect.
The party further resolved to communicate these latest
developments in the party to all stakeholders including, but not limited to,
the government of Zimbabwe, the parliament of Zimbabwe, civic society, the
Zimbabwe Electoral Commission, the diplomatic community and all party organs
and structures.
