The MDC drama continues to rear its ugly scene with MDC-T Secretary-General Mao Nyikadzino yesterday announcing that Thokozani Khupe has been fired from the party with immediate effect.
In a letter addressed to Khupe , General Mao as Nyikadzino is fondly known said by associating herself with the Supreme Court ruling Khupe had voluntarily left the MDC-T.
Nyikadzino wrote, “By accepting the court ruling and paying allegiance to its contents and instructions, my former president has exited the party voluntarily.
“We wish her well in her future endeavours though with a heavy heart. You can never be President of 2 or 3 or 4 different political parties at one point.”
Nyikadzino said he would now assume the position of acting president as prescribed by the party’s constitution.
“I am now the acting president of the MDC-T which contested 2018 elections with Dr Thokozani Khupe as the presidential candidate.”
The defiant Nyikadzino has since written to Parliament and the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) advising them not to confuse his party with the other MDC formations in whatever decisions the two entities will make in the future.
Meanwhile, Mwonzora who is claiming to be the rightful Secretary-General has reported that he is unfazed by Nyikadzino and thundered that there is no going back on the Congress.
