Parliament ejects MDC-T Senator

Parliament yesterday ejected Bulawayo Senator Matson Hlalo from the Upper House following a decision by the MDC-T to recall the outspoken legislator from the August House.
The recalling of Sen Hlalo is a culmination of factionalism that has dogged the opposition party pitting MDC-T leader, Morgan Tsvangirai and national executive member Nelson Chamisa.
Acting Senate President Charles Tawengwa, made the announcement yesterday.
Sen Hlalo who was within Parliament building did not attend the sitting ostensibly after receiving the news of his pending expulsion through the grapevine.
The tiff between Tsvangirai and Hlalo arose after the latter took the opposition party to the High Court challenging the decision to recognise Gift Banda as Bulawayo provincial chairperson.
