Daniel Nemukuyu Senior Reporter
FORMER Zanu-PF Women’s League political commissar Mrs Tracy Mutinhiri has joined MDC-T.
The erstwhile Labour and Social Services deputy minister was expelled from Zanu-PF last year for “engaging in activities contrary to the party’s constitution”.
Mrs Mutinhiri joined MDC-T on Monday after making an application.
Zanu-PF spokesperson Cde Rugare Gumbo said: “We are not surprised by the move taken. All indications from the time she was with us showed that she was always working with MDC-T. The reasons given by MDC-T for her dismissal are nonsensical.”
Cde Gumbo said Mrs Mutinhiri’s activities in the public service ministry were anti-Zanu-PF.
MDC-T spokesperson Mr Douglas Mwonzora said: “Mrs Mutinhiri has joined the happy MDC family. We welcome her with open hands and hope that she will find peace of her political mind in the MDC.

“The Constitution, as the supreme law of the land, must be owned and must belong to the people.
“It must be timeless, meaning you do not make a Constitution in order to change it tomorrow.
“A Constitution must bind generations and of necessity must respect the values, ideals and ethos of a nation.
