By Own Correspondent- One of Opposition MDC’s founding member, David Coltart, has described today’s High Court ruling as empty thunder and gave assurance that it will be repealed.

The High Court today ruled that MDC leader Nelson Chamisa is an illegitimate president.

The ruling said that Chamisa appointment to the position of vice president by Morgan Tsvangirai before the latter’s death was null and void.

Said Coltart in a comment about the ruling:

“It will be appealed. This is what is called a brutum fulmen – ‘empty thunder’, an ineffective order. By the time the appeal is heard a duly constituted Congress of the MDC will have been held and @nelsonchamisa elected. Pathetic interference with the due process of a party.
