In its communique, MDC-T Bulawayo information secretary, Lucky Cuma wrote:
The Province wishes to distance itself from the press conference hosted by suspended Vice President (VP) Dr Thokozani Khupe, in Bulawayo earlier today. We are fully aware that she has been suspended from all party activities pending her appearance before the Abiter-General and his balanced disciplinary committee.
We urge our genuine MDC-T members, our MDC Alliance partners, and all Zimbabweans in general to totally ignore this unsanctioned event designed for the purposes of scoring cheap and temporary goals. We affirm the decision of our party and President Douglas T. Mwonzora, to suspend VP Khupe.
The province went on to describe her as hostile in nature and recalled how she repeatedly fought with the late party founding leader, Morgan Tsvangirai and the MDC-T family.
A similar letter was reproduced by the other provinces.
Meanwhile, Khupe held a presser on Friday declaring that she was the new party leader adding that the MDC-T had split.
