Tsvangirai, Chamisa fall out

The relationship between former Prime Minister and MDC-T leader, Morgan Tsvangirai and party organising secretary, Nelson Chamisa reportedly broke down at the weekend after a finger pointing incident in Mutare.

Chamisa according to highly placed sources was irked by Tsvangirai's move to directly get involved in the provincial congress in Manicaland at which information czar Douglas Mwonzora was overwhelmingly nominated for the coveted position of secretary-general.

So angry was Chamisa that he pointed his finger at Tsvangirai and told him to take charge of the process if he so wished, while Tsvangirai remained composed and later asked for the candidates to introduce themselves.

The former ICT minister has been riding the crest of a wave in the party nominations process ahead of congress and looked set to take over from Biti.
