Parliament speaker confirms khupe’s recall from parliament

BY HARRIET CHIKANDIWA
SPEAKER of Parliament Jacob Mudenda yesterday confirmed that embattled MDC T leader Thokozani Khupe and her ally Nomvula Mguni have been recalled from Parliament

Khupe was suspended by MDC-T leader Douglas Mwonzora last month, but she later announced that the latter had instead fired himself from the party after claiming the MDC Alliance name and presidency.

“On January 24, Parliament was notified that Khupe and Mguni (proportional representation) had ceased to be members of the MDC-T and MDC party,” Mudenda told Parliament.
