BREAKING: High Court Rules That Chamisa Is Illegitimate MDC President

A High Court judge has ruled that MDC leader Nelson Chamisa is not the legitimate president of the party. Reports indicate that the ruling was made 5 days ago but was only made known on Wednesday.

Not only that, the Court has ruled that the vice-presidential appointments made by late party leader  Morgan Tsvangirai are null and void. The court has ordered the party to convene an extraordinary congress within a month.

This means that when Chamisa was illegitimate vice president when he took over from the late Tsvangirai in February last year. The nominations that were done ahead of the 24-26 May elective Congress are, as a result, null and void.

Furthermore, the ruling effectively means that even Elias Mudzuri is illegitimate and Thokozani Khupe is the rightful MDC president.

Part of the High Court ruling reads:
