By Dorrothy Moyo| The MDC-T party has slapped Nelson Chamisa’s deputy, Thokozani Khupe, Lovemore Moyo and organizing secretary Abednigo Bhebhe with a one week ultimatum.
After this period should they not reform, the three will be severely disciplined according party principles.
The three have been boycotting meetings for several months to date since the days of Morgan Tsvangirai’s leadership and September last year they caused a stir when they bunked Tsvangirai’s meetings.
They were protesting over the decision to form an MDC Alliance. An earlier matter of contention was the appointment of Nelson Chamisa and Elias Mudzuri to the Vice Presidency.
When Tsvangirai died last month, Acting President Nelson Chamisa revealed that he took several attempts to reach out to Khupe for a reconciliation. Chamisa back then said he did not want to lose Khupe “because she is part of us”.
But 2 weeks after Tsvangirai’s departure, the party has resolved to mete out action on Ms Khupe and her allies.
Chamisa’s Spokesperson and Director of Communications Luke Tamborinyoka said,”the party has given 7 days for engagement processes to take place with senior leaders VP Khupe, national chairperson Lovemore Moyo and organizing secretary Hon. Abednigo Bhebhe after which the party has mandated the leadership to take the necessary action by operation of law.”
