CCC said:<\/p>\n<p>We note concerns raised by this image. It would appear it was a private meeting. CCC is a new citizens\u2019 project.<\/p>\n<p>The rollout of the program of action and all matters incidental will be announced.<\/p>\n<p>Citizens mustn\u2019t be confused or panic about the health and well-being of their project.<\/p>\n<p>CCC was responding specifically to a Twitter user, Dakarai Chikara, who had expressed disappointment over the picture. Chikara said:<\/p>\n<p>Disappointed with that picture. Please, we do\u2019t want Khupe in @CCCZimbabwe, she has done more damage to our struggle. Moving away from MDC was a cleansing ceremony.<\/p>\n<p>For us to take that dirt back is very irresponsible. We have enough support all needed is to do a crusade for people to VOTE.<\/p>\n<p>Commenting on the photo, freelance journalist Hopewell Chin\u2019ono cryptically said Khupe\u2019s \u201cdress sense is consistent\u201d. Wrote Chin\u2019ono:<\/p>\n<p>MaKhupe\u2019s dress sense is consistent. You can never say that you are not sure of her taste in dressing.<\/p>\n<p>You can\u2019t complain in the future when she turns up on a date with her usual type of dress when you knew already that she likes those types of dresses. That is her style.<\/p>\n<p>Khupe was recently suspended and subsequently fired by MDC-T leader Douglas Mwonzora after she announced a split of the party.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/zimbabwe\">Zimbabwe<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Zimbabwe.
