Tsvangirai expulsion just cheap drama - MDC-T

The so-called expulsion of MDC-T leader Morgan Tsvangirai and the party's national chairman Lovemore Moyo by the "rebels" is nothing more than cheap drama, the MDC-T said on Monday.

In a statement today the troubled party said: "that the so-called tribunal proceeded to sit even after the High court ruling that stopped the sham Mandel resolutions shows that the rebels have no respect whatsoever for the rule of law. The charade is the work of lawless lawyers who do not respect the courts just as they do not respect the constitution of the party."

"Nowhere in the world has a judgment by a tribunal superseded a judgment by a superior and competent court."

"Tsvangirai and national chairman Moyo remain in their positions unfazed by this cheap drama. It is ironic that the rebels, who masquerade as democrats, would sink so low as to convene a meeting of their so-called tribunal when the High Court had expressly made a ruling on the matter."

"No amount of drama will stop and detract the party leadership from executing its constitutional mandate. The party is preparing for Congress and we are forging ahead with the democratic struggle to bring positive transformation in the lives of the people of Zimbabwe."
