Former Finance Minister Tendai Biti who was previously “fired” from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), has hit back by firing the officials who fired him Dr Gorden Moyo and Mrs Lucia Matibenga. The two were fired for engineering a coup within the party.

Spokesperson Mr Jacob Mafume said:

We have resolved to remove the office bearers who masterminded the coup and we will appoint people in their place. We are going to have an acting national chairperson Evelyn Masaiti, acting secretary general Settlement Chikwinya until the next Congress.

We could not go into the kindergarten process of exchanging expulsions. We do believe that if people meet and decide to chase the whole leadership there is an element of madness and that their madness cannot be answered by more madness.
