By A Correspondent- The Douglas Mwonzora-led MDC-T has fired Chinhoyi Constituency legislator, Dr Peter Mataruse and Chinhoyi Municipality Mayor and Ward 5 Councillor Garikai Dendera.

Reports indicate that the opposition party has axed the two, including Ward 1 Councillor Sairos Good, who have yet to receive official confirmation of their expulsion.

Both MDC Alliance Mashonaland West provincial chairperson Ralph Magunje and Dr Mataruse said they were yet to get official communication on the recalls. Mataruse said:

I have heard about my recall, though I am yet to receive an official letter. I expect to receive the letter officially if the messages going around social media are true.

Mayor Dendera also said he had not received the letter of recall. He insisted the MDC-T had no power to expel him as he belonged to the MDC Alliance.
The recalls come a few days after the MDC-T recalled Kwekwe Mayor Angeline Kasipo, newly elected deputy mayor Melody Chingarande and another councillor, Washington Moyo, from their positions.
