The opposition MDC-T led by Senator Douglas Mwonzora has appointed two proportional representation MPs, Visitor Ndebele and Florence Nyika, to take up vacancies left by Thokozani Khupe and Nomvula Mguni. Khupe and Mguni were recalled from the party and subsequently joined the rival Citizens’ Coalition for Change (CCC) led by Nelson Chamisa. Pindula News presents a notice by the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) on the appointment of the duo:
