By Own Correspondent| MDC-T president Thokozani Khupe has revealed that her party will attend the memorial service for the late MDC founding president, Morgan Richard Tsvangirai.

The Zimbabwean Prime Minister and ex trade unionist died of colon cancer on Valentine’s Day in 2018.

His family revealed that Tsvangirai’s memorial service will be held on 14 February 2019.

Khupe had sought for security guarantees for her to attend the memorial service after she was brutally assaulted by suspected MDC Alliance activists during Tsvangirai’s funeral.

Khupe’s party spokesperson Linda Masarira said:

“Yes, we received the invitation and we debated about it. There were people with reservations about attending considering the violence that took place during the funeral.

(However) we have accepted the invitation and we are still trying to find out how tight the security is since the family promised us that there will be tight security.

Considering how violent people from MDC can be, we are waiting to hear about the security issue which is critically important.”
