Former MDC-T Spokesperson Linda Masarira has ripped into Thokozani Khupe saying she feel betrayed after supporting the former deputy premier when he has labelled a Zanu PF project adding that her former boss succumbed to tribal pressure to dismiss her.

In a scathing attack on her former colleague, Masarira said Khupe will face the consequences of her action.

“I stood with Dr Thokozani Khupe when she was accused of being a Zanu PF project. Unfortunately, she decided to succumb to the pressure from my deputy Khaliphani Phungeni, a South African-based cabal and some tribalists based in Bulawayo who always seek to make the MDC-T a tribalist party. I gave them a long rope to tie themselves, which they have finally done. It is rather unfortunate that they don’t realise that for every action taken, there is a consequence,” Masarira said.
