MDC president Welshman Ncube has denied allegations that he has a personal vendetta against Priscilla Misihairabwi-Mushonga. This comes after Misihairabwi-Mushonga who is the Proportional Representation legislator for Matabeleland South was omitted from the list of candidates who will be representing the MDC in the 2018 harmonised elections. Said Ncube,
…You know it’s a matter of public record that various people over the last 5 years demanded the sacking of Priscilla as being a member of parliament for Matebeleland South. The (Moses, former MDC Secretary General) Mzilas of this world left because they were at loggerheads with me for refusing to accept Priscilla being removed. From day one, who has protected Priscilla from being recalled!? Repeatedly and repeatedly in the last 4 years. Have the demands for her to leave not been contained up to this day?! I am the only thing, over 5 years, which stood between her and being recalled. Is that the conduct of a person who has a vendetta against someone?
