There are some schools of thought that thinks Abedinico Bhebhe could be paying back for his appointment by the MDC-T President who also happen to be the Primew Minister of Zimbabwe for a ministrial post. Mlambo denied the claim and said that is mere talk without evidence.
The five are leveled against breaching the MDC Mutambara constitution subsection (10:17). The disciplinary which consist of Liason Mlambo, Tonderai Chitere, Trudy Stevenson, Mrs Gijima and Mr Jele saw it worth to suspend the five party members and let them appear before the disciplinary Committee.
Mlombo said that if the five had a contention they could have use propare party structure to table their complaints than criticising the Party President openly.
Responding to the question as to whether the five will be dismissed, Mlambo said it is too early to think along those line." In any case the accused persons are not guilty or found guilt until trial". Those who are members of Parliement will remain as MP's with pending decision whether they can be expelled in the party.
It is alleged that some of the party member are accusing their leaders who do not tolerate views from their fellows and discend upon them heavily when they hold contrary ideas. The five are accused agin for violating the GPA, which united all the three main political parties in Zimbabwe.
