By Farai D Hove| Hell has broken loose on MDC renegade, Thokozani Khupe who created her own MDC morph after being kicked out having rebelled against the late leader, Morgan Tsvangirai, as she has fallen into trouble over blowing up allowance money in a posh hotel.
Khupe who deserted Harvest House for months running, and later expelled for it, has for the last year running, elevated herself to leader of a new MDC she says is authentic.
After the events of the 1st August 2018, when Emmerson Mnangagwa used the military to change election results, Khupe further raised herself to leader of the Polad dialogue-club Mnangagwa created to sanitise the 1 Aug-military crackdown.
The United Nations has condemned the 1 August crime and implicated Mnangagwa for it.
As of yesterday, sources close to her revealed to ZimEye she sped out of the meeting in tears after being grilled on why her party juniors blew allowances money spending three weeks running inside the posh Crowne Plaza Hotel, under the guise of engaging Ambassadors and heads of foreign missions accredited to Zimbabwe.
What is infuriating is that there is no documentation to prove what these engagements were and what was discussed, said one source.
In the latest developments, Khupe is planning to travel to the United States and Europe to engage Polad’s so called dialogue.
Said a source privy to developments:
Fixing the country is not a power game and it needs competent people driven by a passion to transform Zimbabwe not to occupy positions without delivering the mandate of POLAD.
Some of these Principals who are crying for these positions do not even have O’ levels and do not even understand the gravity of what is required of them in the committees they are crying to lead.
What led to the impasse could be the love of lavish lifestyles as rumours within POLAD were stating that all Chairpersons, deputy chairpersons and their rapporteurs were going to get diplomatic passports for international trips. We cant seriously exchange competence for luxuries when our country is burning.”
Presidential spokesperson George Charamba is on record dismissing opposition leader Nelson Chamisa’s calls for dialogue arguung that POLAD was the only dialogue platform.
Charamba argued that POLAD was the “only game in town”.
