Mujuru's Deputy Sipepa Nkomo Resigns, Quits Politics

National People’s Party (NPP) vice president Dr Samuel Sipepa Nkomo, national chairperson Mr Dzikamai Mavhaire and secretary for information and publicity Mr Jeffreyson Chitando, resigned from the party yesterday morning.

In an interview with The Herald yesterday, Chitando confirmed the development saying he would give reasons for his resignation today (Wednesday). He said three had already resigned, but more resignations were still expected from senior party officials. Speaking to The Herald, Nkomo said he resigned from the Joice Mujuru led NPP before deciding to entirely retire from politics. Said Nkomo:

I firstly resigned from NPP after giving prior notice to the party’s top nine meeting chaired by Dr Mujuru last week. Now that I have resigned from the party, I wish to advise the nation that I am also retiring from politics after participating for 58 years. I have done a lot of politics and being 75-years-old, I feel I should retire and leave politics to the younger generation.
