MDC-T President Thokozani Khupe
I’ve just received a call from my lawyer @ProfMadhuku informing me that the SC, judgement will be handed down today @ 3pm. I call upon our members & supporters to remain calm & accept whatever the outcome of judgement is. In unity let’s renew & build our great Party and Country!
MDC Secretary General: Charlton Hwende
Ms Khupe has just announced that the Supreme Court judgement will be issued at 3pm today. His supporters already celebrating and have attempted a hostile takeover of the MRT Building this morning. All Courts are supposed to be closed #COVID19 & our lawyers have not been informed
We don’t know why Ms Khupe is celebrating when she is not a member of MDC. Our Lawyers as at 11:45 had no knowledge of this judgement and are now busy checking with the Court.

When I got news of the @nelsonchamisa Vs Khupe ruling in the morning to be deliver at 1500hrs from an informant who appears to know the outcome, I argued with him. He logged off and says LATER. If what he tells me happens which is that Khupe won case, then JUDICIARY is in chaos
The judgement today will have an huge impact on the judiciary in Zimbabwe. Politically @nelsonchamisa won this case and what ever the regime does is inconsequential. This is a political matter that the masses, MDC members will determine not a court of law, NEVER

Your post criminally betrays your advance knowledge of the brutum fulmen judgment. You last used this account in April 2018 before your congress where you became MDC-T President, today you’re MDC-T Acting President, again. #Coronavirus lockdown or not, judgment changes nothing!

If this is true, then it shows how Zimbabwe’s judiciary & the State are thoroughly irresponsible & reckless! To issue a judgment with political connotations when we are fighting Covid-19 is stupid. The State will be responsible for anything that happens thereafter! It is madness!
