Khupe faces MDC-T expulsion

MDC-T vice-president Thokozani Khupe could be thrown out of the party if she misses today’s national standing committee (NSC) meeting, which will be chaired by acting president Elias Mudzuri, NewsDay has heard.

Khupe missed last week’s meeting together with national chairperson Lovemore Moyo, who, however, issued an apology.

Sources said Khupe’s failure to attend meetings was now being viewed as contemptuous in the context of her reservations about the creation of the MDC Alliance – a coalition of opposition parties.
