The Nelson Chamisa-led MDC-T has dismissed accusations that is followers prevented the rival Thokozani Khupe led faction from holding its manifesto launch rally in Harare on Saturday. Khupe’s faction cancelled the manifesto launch after less than 30 reportedly attended.
MDC-T Khupe’s secretary general Nickson Nyikadzino and vice president Obert Gutu blamed the poor turnout on Chamisa’s faction. However in an interview with NewZimbabwe.com, Chamisa’s acting national spokesperson Thabitha Khumalo said the Khupe faction should brace for more humiliation since they do not have a following. Said Khumalo:
Surely, you cannot continue to blame your monumental failure to organise meetings on President Chamisa. What happened in Harare is just the beginning of more misery in terms of their support base. Unfortunately, this is the reality which is awaiting them in all the provinces. People only know the MDC-T led by advocate Chamisa.
