The Zimbabwe National Students' Union on Thursday said they had suspended ties with the MDC-T and stripped Information and Communication Technology minister Nelson Chamisa of the honour of being a member of the students' body's alumni family.
This follows an altercation between the MDC-T organising secretary and the students' union at the party's 12th anniversary last weekend.
Chamisa, however, laughed off the students' supposed action and refused to comment.
2 Zinasu leaders, Tafadzwa Mugwadi and Obert Masaraure, intended to give a solidarity speech at the MDC-T 12th anniversary celebrations at Gwanzura Stadium last Saturday, but Chamisa denied them the opportunity.
The move resulted in a raucous spat which was taken to the party's national youth president Solomon Madzore who tried to calm them down.
The student leaders were apparently dissatisfied with the development and decided to cut ties with the political movement.
