Zimbabweans on Twitter have reacted to the chaotic MDC T court-sanctioned congress that took place yesterday. After the congress, Douglas Mwonzora won the party presidency against Khupe who polled less than 120 votes. However, before counting was completed allegations of election rigging and violence marred the congress. Khupe also suspended Mwonzora before the elections were completed as she alleges that he threw the party into disarray.
Here is what Twimbos had to say about the elections:

The side show was what it was . An embarrassing orgy by a desperate mafia intend on destroying people s project.But stooges will always be stooges .Wananchi are clear & have never been clearer .There is only one movement led by one leader ,Advocate @nelsonchamisa #AsifuniBumbulu

Apart from the fact that the MDC-T congress was a nullity as they did not stick to the 30 November Supreme Court deadline, the outcome is even worse. Results show no quorum; Dougie 884, Thoko 118, Elias 14, Komichi, 9. Spoilt ballots 2. The greatest bogus MDC congress since 1999

MDC t leader thokozani khuphe will feel the pinch ,since all has been Xposed that she is a sellout,a leader from hell,a mnangagwa bootlicker,zupco is transporting everything, everyone to the so called congres
Uthseketsha wokaGodlwayo
MDC T Congress, you ask your tokoloshis to destroy your opponents and they drag you in their shenanigans

Khupe is surely the new Dr Amai – “I have stopped this process”“this election is no more” What a rant!!
Jonathan Moyo
The chaotic Supreme Court judgment was bound to lead to a chaotic congress with a chaotic outcome. Courts must not dabble in politics, especially where the legal case is water under the bridge & is thus moot!

Im not a law expert neither an MDC member but i dont think that madam @DrThoko_Khupe had e right to suspend @DMwonzora from that party.Khupe was a candidate & an interested part.She shld hev waited 4 e completion of e process b4 suspending pple. She must show political maturity

When @DrThoko_Khupe was offered a parliamentary post as the leader of the Opposition she said “I have come to work with @edmnangagwa to make sure that Zimbabwean people get jobs, clean water, good health care and good service delivery. #Covid19 judgments later ended in tears.
MDC Alliance
The MDC Alliance would never get ZUPCO buses, use of the HICC, police authorization to gather or state funds. Khupe’s project, chaotic as it is, has been a huge fraud on our democracy. However, the events of today have shown that Zanu PF has failed to hold them together.

Chamisa fails to stop Khupe’s Extra Ordinary CongressDouble exclamation mark The High Court in Bulawayo has dismissed with costs an urgent application by the former MDC-T Organising Secretary, Mr A Bhebhe who was trying to interdict the MDC-T EOC scheduled for tomorrow at HICC.
Boss Mhofela
Chamisa is the least of your worries mukoma. Those that gave MDCT to khupe will come and get it back. There will be nothing you can do.

Kikikikkikiki @MmusiMaimane @Julius_S_Malema come and see the chaos ED fearing Chamisa appointed Thokozani Khupe to be leader of opposition the Zanupf sponsored Congress was as shambolic as Zanupf itself they are sponsored by Zanupf it stinks @HillaryClinton
Hopewell Chi’ono
This was why @DrThoko_Khupe was looking for Mnangagwa’s Tabani when she rang @adv_fulcrum after the name mix up.She feels betrayed after she says her people’s names are not in the voter’s roll. Of course, this is a bogus & contrived Congress meant to destroy the REAL @mdczimbabwe
Denzo
Khupe said ED did not rig Chamisa in 2018 elections, so why is Khupe complaining about Mwonzora’s rigging ? Let’s the Hullabaloo nonsensical Congress carry on so that Khupe will learn that rigging is real & Chamisa was right about ED’s rigging

At least Trump waited for the results to be announced Madam Khupe varamba
Solomon Harudzibwi
If there was an independent commission why would khupe stop the elections citing rigging? Chaora ichi. There is no honour among thieves.

Mwonzora (candidate) suspends Bhebhe (candidate) …Mwonzora says “he violated the constitution by supporting another political party”.
Khupe (candidate) suspends Mwonzora (candidate) …Mwonzora says “I can’t be suspended by a fellow candidate”
Mambo Svosve
Morgan Tsvangirayi must be turning in his grave @ this insult & assault of his rich legacy!BREAKING: Instead Of Thanking Voters, Mwonzora Confidently Announces That It’s The Election Management Board Members Who Elected Him.
Dr T Stanzo
If I were Mwonzora, I wud invite /merge @nelsonchamisa and the whole MDC Alliance back. Then I would go down as a “hero”.The guy who fooled fake democrats ( Khupe and crew ) and recapture the great party back to the people !
Create Africa
It’s high time @nelsonchamisa @BitiTendai @Welshman_Ncube to go back to the original name: Movement for Democratic Change since Mwonzora and Khupe are now MDC-T
Jameson Timba
The State went out of it’s way to support Khupe; Mwonzora et al inorder to destroy @nelsonchamisa and MDC Alliance. Covid regulations were suspended; zupco buses commandeered; public funds were availed. The result was a farce where a third of the quorum attended a circus Congress
