MDC Spokesperson Allegedly Fired For Standing Against President's Son

The leader of the smaller MDC party, Professor Welshman Ncube has been accused of firing the party’s deputy national spokesperson Mbuso Siso because he ran against his son. Siso will be representing the MDC Alliance in Bulawayo’s Ward 2 in the July 30 elections. Writing on his Facebook page, Siso said,

I’ve been dismissed by Professor Welshman Ncube as the party deputy) national information and publicity secretary all because he attempted to bless his son Nkanyiso Brezhnev Mathonsi with Ward 2 Bulawayo central seat that was negotiated on my behalf to be the candidate…Thank God, I succeeded to block him as the candidate and his father for his dictatorship behaviour. Professor Welshman Ncube should be stopped immediately for his unbecoming behaviour he is no difference with the Mugabe regime which attempted to create a dynasty by imposing his wife.

However, MDC national spokesperson Mr Kurauone Chihwai dismissed the claims saying Siso had actually been fired for bringing the party’s name into disrepute.
