MDC Alliance’s Vice President Professor Welshman Ncube has once again dismissed as “fake news” accusations that he was no longer with the country’s biggest opposition party, MDC Alliance.
The story, alleged to have been authored by Moses Matenga of the NewsDay, reported that Professor Ncube had left the Nelson Chamisa led opposition party to revive the now defunct MDC N.
“MDC N Leader, Welshman Ncube, has said the MDC Alliance is now history and is no longer viable for his future political ambitions. He also advised MDC Alliance Co-leaders, Nelson Chamisa and Tendai Biti, to ‘forget about MDC A if they were serious about the country’s leadership,” reads part of the fake news.
In his response via his official Twitter handle, Professor Ncube said:
” The agents of the regime deployed everywhere including among us are on a roll with FAKE & UTTERLY FALSE stories & Facebook & Twitter accounts. I am going nowhere. I stand with Nelson Chamisa, Tendai Biti and Lynette Kore in the fight 4 the people. The MDC Alliance is my home.”
Ncube together with Tendai Biti and Lynette Kore were unanimously elected to the position of the Vice Presidents in 2019 at a Congress in Gweru.
This was after the parties that came together under MDC Alliance banner in the 2018 general election agreed to transform it into a one big political party consisting of social democrats.
The majority of the MDC Alliance leaders are part of the team that formed the original Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) back in 1999.
