BULAWAYO councillor, who two weeks ago attended a caucus meeting of Citizens’ Coalition for Change despite her being a member of the Douglas Mwonzora-led MDC-T has taken a swipe at her colleagues accusing them of being hypocrites.
Ward Two Councillor, Joyce Ndlovu was recently exposed for
having attended the CCC caucus that was chaired by former Bulawayo deputy
mayor, Mr Tinashe Kambarami and former Bulawayo Senator, Matson Hlalo.
Ward Two comprises Sauerstown, Tegela, Norwood, Richmond,
Windsor Park, and Glenville, Trenance North, Highmount, 100 Acre Lot,
Harrisvale, Queesdale, Kingsdale, Northgate, Queens Park West, North End,
Newmansford, Lobenvale, Northlynne, Jungle, Kennilworth, Rowena, Sub 15 and 16
Trenance, Umguza Agriculture Lots.
Among the issues that were discussed in the said caucus was
a possible move for the councillors to pass a vote of no confidence against the
city’s Town Clerk, Mr Christopher Dube and the Mayor, Councillor Solomon Mguni.
However, Clr Ndlovu had no kind words for her fellow
councillors as she accused them of leaking the information that she had
attended the caucus. In a leaked audio to the councillors’ WhatsApp group, Clr
Ndlovu is heard saying Mr Mwonzora was dull to believe that Bulawayo
Councillors were on his side.
“I have a question Bulawayo councillors, I will exclude two
people, or just maybe one from this group, and the person I will remove is the
chief whip, Clr Silas Chigora. I will exclude chief whip because you stand for
what you say. People have been accusing you for causing the recall of
councillors until we realised that you are innocent and you have clearly stated
that you are a member of the MDC-T.
“What I would like to know is who exposed me that I
attended the CCC caucus, who leaked, I am asking, who exposed me. I would like
to say the truth right now and right here that even the MDC-T president
Mwonzora is dull, if he was clever he would recall all the sell-outs from
Bulawayo because from this group there is not even one councillor going with
Mwonzora, the majority of you are saying they will leave him during the last
days of your terms,” said Clr Ndlovu.
She threatened to expose some of her colleagues whom she
claimed attended a meeting with Mr Chamisa in Harare, recently.
“I want the truth right here, who took my name to the media
for attending that caucus, if you know you are the one who exposed me may you
raise your hand, if I get recalled will you eat my meat? Who is that person who
exposed me who is the devil and quite evil, was I the only one who was at that
caucus, can all those who came to the CCC party offices lift up their hands.
“You are all sellouts you councillors, you went and
attended a meeting called by president Chamisa in Harare, who sold you out,
there is no councillor who is going with Mwonzora here, they are all lying,
they are all sellouts. I want that sellout now, you thieves, you sit at your
house and busy exposing me, that sell out should be exposed so we cut of their
nose,” said a fuming Clr Ndlovu.
Contacted for comment, Clr Ndlovu confirmed that the audio
emanated from her saying she was standing with everything that she had said.
“Yes, I sent that audio, my fellow councillors are just not
honest and are indeed sellouts, the whole lot of them,” said Clr Ndlovu.
Meanwhile, the leader of the other faction of the MDC-T, Dr
Thokozani Khupe took to social media yesterday to announce that she attended a
CCC meeting addressed by Mr Chamisa in Bulawayo.
“Today I attended my first meeting as a CCC member
addressed by President Chamisa in Bulawayo Macdonald Hall,” she said. Dr Khupe
has in the past urged her party followers to vote CCC. Sunday News
