The Thokozani Khupe led MDC-T has expelled Harare Mayor, Councillor Herbert Gomba and five others accusing them of having ceased to be members of the party.

In a letter to Minister of Local Government, Public Works and National Housing, Honourable July Moyo, MDC-T Secretary General Douglas Mwonzora said;

“We hereby notify your office in terms of section 278 as read with section 129 of the constitution, we hereby declare that the following Councillors have ceased to belong to Movement for Democratic Change which is a member of the Movement for Democratic Alliance which was formed in terms.”

The party has previously recalled Members of Parliament, Senators and councillors following the Supreme Court ruling which nullified leadership changes that took place following the death of party founding President Morgan Tsvangirai in February 2018.

The recalled MDC Alliance members include Happymore Chidziva, Prosper Mutseyami, Charlton Hwende, Tabitha Khumalo and Lilian Timveos among others.
