MDC T Spokesperson: this week our President Morgan Tsvangirai was taken ill. On the advice of his doctors, he had to travel to South Africa for treatment.
Yesterday he successfully underwent a medical procedure and is recuperating well in South Africa. We are happy that our President is recovering well and we wish him a speedy recovery. We kindly request the nation and the party to give the President and his family the necessary space and privacy as he recovers. The nation and the media will be kept updated.
Pictures started circulating online following MDC T demo, showing shocking photos of Tsvangirai whose body has shrunk making him look like a little man of smaller stature.
