The two MDC formations are headed for a major showdown after revelations that some members of the Professor Welshman Ncube led movement have shifted their loyalties to Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai's MDC-T party, ZBC news reported on Thursday.
Deputy Spokesperson for the Ncube led MDC, Mr Kurauone Chihwayi confirmed to ZBC news in a telephone interview that the movement has individuals elected on the party's ticket into parliament who are now conniving with MDC-T.
Chihwayi however denied reports from some sections of the media that a probe team has been set up saying they have no intention of setting up one to investigate the matter.
Those fingered to be working with MDC-T are Deputy Speaker of the House of Assembly, Nomalanga Mzilikazi Khumalo, Gwanda North MP, Zinti Thandeko Mnkandla and Senator Kembo Dube.
After recently exchanging accusations over the hijacking of the late Gibson Sibanda's children, whose late father was in the Professor Welshman Ncube, observers say the latest issue is bound to see the two formations clash seriously, with Khumalo losing her post as House of Assembly Deputy Speaker.
