Zim Now Writer

MDC-T president Douglas Mwonzora has expelled former party vice president Elias Mudzuri and six other long-serving members of the opposition party.

The seven have been on suspension.

Speaking at the party’s headquarters in Harare today, Mwonzora said Mudzuri and the other six officials, committed acts of gross misconduct by taking the party to court.

“We have lifted the suspensions on Senator Mudzuri and the six others that is because the suspensions serve no purpose.

“In terms of our constitution, they have expelled themselves from the party by taking the party to court.

“In terms of clause 5.10a of the constitution of the MDC, if you take the party to court, you automatically expel yourself from the party,” Mwonzora said.

The other six officials who have been fired by Mwonzora are Norest Marara, Mashonaland West province chairperson Gift Konjana, Masvingo province chairperson John Nyika, US province chairperson Den Moyo, secretary for Education, Edwin Dzambara and national executive member Edwin Kakora.
