Former MDC Alliance (MDC-A) MP for Mkoba, Amos Chibaya, has castigated MDC-T acting president Thokozani Khupe for expelling 13 legislators from Parliament who were voted on an Alliance ticket.<\/p>\n

Chibaya, who is the MDC-A national organising secretary, together with 12 others, were recalled by Khupe from Parliament after they refused to dump Nelson Chamisa. Said Chibaya:<\/p>\n

This cowardly act defies logic and defeats the democratic will of the people who clearly voted for their preferred representatives in Parliament in the 2018 elections.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\n

The unprecedented move by Khupe and cabal to recall us from Parliament will not deter our commitment to the people\u2019s struggle.<\/p>\n

We, however, remain resolute and committed to the people\u2019s struggle and shall not sell our souls for a few pieces of silver.<\/p>\n
