18 March 2018
By Staff Reporter| MDC Deputy President Thokozani Khupe on Sunday pulled a fair crowd at the same time her colleague Nelson Chamisa was gathering over 60,000 just an hour away in Gweru. Although Chamisa’s crowd was larger, Khupe managed her fair of hundreds at the Amphitheatre in Bulawayo.
The development left questions on the MDC’s strength in the region following her challenge of Nelson Chamisa’s leadership.
She began her speech by saying, “Today I stand in front of you as a proud legitimate and constitutionally elected Acting President of the MDC, because of the unconditional love you continue giving to me.” (CLICK HERE FOR THE FULL SPEECH).
CITES’ Zenzele Ndebele commented exclaiming, “is this another Split of the MDCT? I thought Khuphe was very calculative in her speech and there is still room for talks. Asazi iyozala nkomoni but the opposition has a chance to make sure ZANU PF does not get a majority in parliament if they work together.”
