President was deceived into the fatal decision to appoint two VPs

An reliable irate source at the Harvest House, the MDC-T's headquarters in Harare has written a damning document claiming party leader Morgan Tsvangirai was deceived to appoint losers for the two Vice Presidents position contrary to the party's constitution which he said would head the political organization towards another split ahead of the elections slated for 2018.

Tsvangirai recently appointed Nelson Chamisa and Elias Mudzuri as second and third Vice Presidents respectively.

The source said the appointments started as a joke by Morgan Komichi deputy national Chairman after the last party congress who hoped to be appointed as the second vice resident then.

"Komichi's theocracy was that there was need of the second Vice President in the party to align the national constitution with the MDC constitution so that the president will go to elections with his two running mates," said the source. "The clause in the national constitution which talks about two Vice Presidents as running mate can only come to life in 2023."

The source said secondly the constitution says, "The President may appoint second Vice Presidents".

"The use of the word was an intelligent clause used by the authors of the constitution which we must applaud our elected secretary general (Douglas Mwonzora) for being vigilant during the constitution writing process during COPAC. This may means you can have two or not running mates. The discretion is with the party. The MDC believes in a mean government with a small cabinet that will run issues in government. It is only Zanu PF that believes in a bloated government."

The source said Komichi did not surrender pushing for the party to adopt the Zanu PF set up of second Vice Presidents.

"He was hoping to be appointed. Komichi is only popular in the party for being a very divisive person. In his agenda pursuit he recruited Chamisa to join force in his crusade to throttle the President to have a buy in into their agenda," said the source.

"I am one of those who actively participated into the scheme, plot and programs of advancing the plan. Komichi didn't know that behind his back we were going to the President He was phoning and lobbying everyone to be appointed the second Vice President. We were telling the President that we need Chamisa because he will represent the youths in the party set up."

"However we needed Komichi because he had a big asset under his sleeve. He goes kuMasowe where he was prophesied that he shall be someone big in this country. That the prophet has seen many people coming and kneel before him being worshipped and that the prophecy has seen Komichi being anointed to take over the party by Tsvangirai."

He said Komichi pushed for the second Vice Presidency that the day before the National Executive and the National Council he phoned almost everyone lobbying for support.

"He send SMSs to those who were not reachable. Some who asked for some little cash were generously send through Ecocash. Komichi for a week became so rich that you would wonder where such loads of cash came from.

The source said such moves has always caused the split of the party every time towards any general election.
