Douglas Mwonzora abandons Harvest House
MDC T President Douglas Mwonzora
The Douglas Mwonzora-led MDC-T has reportedly been forced to close its offices at the Morgan Richard Tsvangirai House after the City of Harare cut water supplies over unpaid bills amounting to over $1.9 million.
The party, which is facing crippling financial challenges, has also failed to pay its workers since December.
MDC-T workers have threatened to beat up top executives, including treasurer-general Tapiwa Mashakada, once they set foot at the offices.
The money, however, vanished and Mwonzora kept promising the youths that Mashakada would pay them.
Mwonzora’s spokesperson Lloyd Damba confirmed the party had closed its offices but said the decision was made in compliance with the COVID-19 regulations set by the government.
Contacted by NewsDay for comment over the party bill, Harare City Council spokesperson Michael Chideme said: “Let me check for you.”
The publication however could not get an update from Chideme at the time of going to print last night.
