Parliament has this afternoon expelled 10 MPs from the MDC-T after their party wrote to the House saying they were no longer representing it.
Speaker of the National Assembly Advocate Jacob Mudenda
made the announcement this afternoon. The 10 are Eric Murai, Concilia
Chinanzvavana, Earthrage Kureva, Dorcas Sibanda, Unganai Tarusenga, Lynette
Karenyi-Kore, Prince Sibanda and Wellington Chikombo.
Adv Mudenda said he will soon inform President Mnangagwa
and the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) on the existence of vacancies in
terms of the Constitution. The recall of the 10 is a culmination of 21 MPs the
opposition party has recalled to date following leadership wrangle affecting
the party.
The recalling of MDC-T MPs followed a Supreme Court ruling
in April this year confering legitimacy to Dr Thokozani Khupe as the leader of
the party.
