MDC-T Standing committee welcomes Chamisa, Mudzuri

The Movement for Democratic Change-Tsvangirai  Standing Committee today welcomed two new vice-presidents, Nelson Chamisa and Elias Mudzuri who were appointed last week.

Party president Morgan Tsvangirai chaired the meeting of the Standing Committee which is a sub-committee of the national executive.

The attendance of Chamisa and Mudzuri quashes rumours circulating in the online media that Tsvangirai has changed his mind about the appointments which have been welcomed by the party’s youth wing but have been a subject of debate some who claim that Tsvangirai breached the party constitution by appointing the two.

The party has three vice-presidents including Thozokani Khupe.

Newly appointed Vice Presidents welcomed

President Morgan Tsvangirai today chaired a meeting of the full-standing committee that also welcomed the two new Vice Presidents that were appointed into office last week.

Advocate Nelson Chamisa and Engineer Elias Mudzuri were part of the new-look standing committee that met in Harare today. The two VPs were given a warm welcome by the other members of the committee, which had a full attendance.

The standing committee is a sub-committee of the national executive.

President Tsvangirai also advised that the national executive committee and the national council will convene again in the next few days and one of the key businesses will be to tie up the constitutional amendments adopted by the 4th Congress in Harare in 2014.

The Executive and Council will also deliberate on the pressing national issues affecting the people of Zimbabwe
