Clash In MDC-T After Komichi Signs Papers For Candidate Disqualified By Mwonzora
MDC-T national chairman Morgen Komichi and party secretary-general Douglas Mwonzora have clashed over the selection of candidates. This comes after Komichi signed nomination papers for Rueben Chikudo who had been disqualified by the party. Speaking to Newsday, Komichi said,
I will talk to Mwonzora about this. The letter was supposed to come from me. We investigated and proved that allegations against Mr Chikudo were unfounded and he is our candidate.
Mwonzora on the other hand said,
…We involved the arbiter-general and he gave us recommendations which we took to the appeals committee that decided to disqualify Chikudo. I simply communicated the position.”
There is always need to understand how the justice system operates. (The) evidence is analysed and decisions made. Once decisions are made, action is taken and this is what I did. The appeals committee chaired by vice president Elias Mudzuri, where Komichi and Murisi Zwizwai attended made an agreement to disqualify Chikudo and I communicated the decision.
