Zimbabwe 2023 Elections: Results Trickle In, Mliswa Loses To Tsvangirai

Misheck Manyere, a Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) Marondera Central parliamentary candidate, has announced that he will not withdraw from the upcoming elections despite the party’s official endorsement of Caston Matewu as the candidate.
Manyere who is also Ward 5 councillor successfully filed his nomination papers under CCC, despite the party’s leadership endorsing Matewu. Manyere has also been seen mobilising resources for his campaign. He told Marondera’s State of Streets Address (SOSA):
<blockquote>
I successfully filed my papers under CCC and that will stand.
</blockquote>
However, the Nelson Chamisa-led <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/2023/06/26/ccc-sues-41-fraudulent-candidates/">party has denounced 41 candidates</a> who registered to participate in the upcoming elections under the party’s name without authorisation. The party has filed criminal charges and appealed to the Electoral Court. The 41 unauthorised candidates include 20 who filed nomination papers for National Assembly seats and 21 who filed for local authority seats.
The CCC spokesperson, Fadzayi Mahere, has stated that the party will not proceed with civil and criminal proceedings if the fraudulent candidates withdraw their candidature within 24 hours.
Some of the “fraudulent” candidates <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/2023/06/23/ccc-official-i-won-polls-but-didnt-make-official-party-list/">claim that they won</a> in the party’s selection process to determine Parliamentary and council candidates. However, they were ultimately not included on the <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/2023/06/22/full-list-ccc-parliamentary-candidates-2023-elections/">official party list</a>.
However, some of them have accepted the candidates that the <a class="MarkdownLink_linkifiedLink__KxC9G">party leadership</a> has chosen to represent the party.

CCC Parliamentary Candidate Refuses To Withdraw From Elections Defying Party Order

<a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Zimbabwe_African_National_Union_-_Patriotic_Front">ZANU PF</a> leadership in Mashonaland East province is considering dissolving its cell structures ahead of next year’s elections claiming they were not representative enough.
Addressing a provincial co-ordinating committee meeting in <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Marondera">Marondera</a> on Sunday, provincial chairperson <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Daniel_Garwe">Daniel Garwe</a> said the party will set up new structures. <a href="https://www.newsday.co.zw/2022/06/zanu-pf-to-dissolve-marondera-cell-structures/">NewsDay’s Jairos Saunyama quotes</a> Garwe as saying:
<blockquote>
Here in Marondera, we all know that the cell structures do favour only two individuals — I won’t mention their names. The cell structures should benefit the party, ZANU PF and President (Emmerson) Mnangagwa. We are going to come up with fresh cell structures in Marondera.
</blockquote>
 Reports say some party officials were not happy with the defeat of ZANU PF candidate, Ignatius Mateveke, who lost to <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Citizens%27_Coalition_for_Change">Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC)</a> candidate <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Caston_Matewu">Caston Matewu</a> in the March 26 by-elections.
They blame the loss on some leaders who allegedly failed to mobilise enough support for the party amid reports that some of the cell members voted for the opposition.
Meanwhile, a party mobilising team led by politburo member <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/David_Parirenyatwa">David Parirenyatwa</a> will begin moving around the province starting this Tuesday to mobilise people to register to vote.
It would also assist them to get national identification documents.

"We're Coming Up With Fresh Cell Structures In Marondera" - ZANU PF

The ZANU PF Mashonaland East provincial leadership has reversed the suspension of the provincial deputy secretary for legal affairs, Cleopas Kundiona.
Kundiona was suspended on 4 March from carrying out party activities after being accused of snubbing events organised by ZANU PF Marondera Central candidate for the March 26 by-elections Ignatius Mateveke.
He had also been ordered to appear before a disciplinary committee on 25 March to answer to several allegations.
The move to suspend Kundiona, however, was not well-received by some ZANU PF supporters in the province who threatened a protest vote.
Kundiona Monday confirmed to NewsDay that he had been reinstated. He said:
<blockquote>
I am back at the party. We are focusing on winning the Marondera Central seat, hence we are mobilising support for the party candidate.
</blockquote>
Kundiona lost to Maveteke in the Marondera Central ZANU PF primary elections but he was still expected to campaign for his rival.
The Marondera Central National Assembly seat fell vacant following the recall of  Caston Matewu (MDC Alliance) by the MDC-T led by Douglas Mwonzora.

ZANU PF Reinstates Suspended Official

ZANU PF’s Mashonaland East provincial executive has suspended party official and UMAA Group of Colleges owner Cleopas Kundiona for failing to avail himself during party programmes.
Kundiona lost the ZANU PF primary elections to Ignatius Mateveke for the Marondera Central constituency which became vacant after the MDC-T recalled Caston Matewu (MDC Alliance‎)‎.
Despite losing the primary poll to his rival, Kundiona was still expected to help campaign for him and fund his campaign.
In a letter dated 4 March 2022, ZANU PF provincial vice-chairperson Kudzai Majuru said:
<blockquote>
You were seen in the constituency moving and campaigning for the MDC candidates and you failed to avail yourself for the party programmes without real cause.
</blockquote>
<h2>Details:</h2>
<ul>
<li>Kundiona has been suspended from his position as provincial deputy secretary for legal affairs which he landed during the controversial December elections.</li>
<li>He is not allowed to visit party offices for the purpose of attending and or carrying out any activities for, and on behalf of the party.</li>
<li>He is prohibited from holding any party position or attending any party meeting until the finalisation of a disciplinary hearing pencilled for March 25, 2022.</li>

ZANU PF Suspends Kundiona For Shunning Rival's Rallies

Former Marondera Central legislator Caston Matewu (MDC Alliance) claims the MDC-T which is led by Douglas Mwonzora offered him various top posts in the party to persuade him to betray Nelson Chamisa.
Matewu said he realised that ZANU PF used MDC-T to recall him because, during Parliament sessions, he was exposing looting by cartels allegedly linked to the ruling party. He said:
<blockquote>
I was offered many positions in the MDC-T, but I said no I will not betray my president, Nelson Chamisa.
The car was taken away from me. I lost all the Parliament benefits and salaries but at the end of the day it’s not about me but the people of Marondera who need representation.
You have got (Emmerson) Mnangagwa and Mwonzora in bed together, they are working hand in glove.
I believe when I was recalled I was not in the standing committee, and I was not a provincial chairperson, but I found myself being recalled from Parliament yet the main people they were recalling were actually standing committee members.
So, I wondered why I was recalled but then I found out it was a ZANU PF project, and they didn’t want me by all means necessary in parliament so that I don’t talk or expose all the shenanigans that were happening in Parliament.
</blockquote>
Matewu was recalled from Parliament by MDC-T for allegedly promoting the interests of the Nelson Chamisa-led MDC Alliance, now the Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC).

Former MP Given US$40 As Terminal Benefits

ZBC News yesterday ran the following story on Proton Bakeries. The publication said Proton is dismissing viral social media reports that the bread manufacturer is <a href="https://news.pindula.co.zw/2021/01/07/update-scores-contract-covid-19-at-proton-bread/">shielding COVID-19 positive cases and ordering them</a> to continue working risking the lives of other employees.
Proton reportedly told the national broadcaster that only 30 out of 1000 employees tested positive for COVID-19 and they were in self-isolation.
This came after social media including <a href="https://news.pindula.co.zw/2021/01/13/full-text-boycott-proton-bread-over-covid-19-ex-mp/">EX Marondera MP Caston Matewu started urging</a> people to boycott Proton Bakeries’ bread until they dealt with alleged the COVID-19 case at their bakery.

WATCH: Only 30 Out Of 1000 Employees Tested Positive For COVID-19 - Proton Says Situation Under Control,

Former MDC Alliance legislator for Marondera Central, Caston Matewu, has urged the general populace to boycott Proton Bread after it emerged that more than 40 workers contracted the Coronavirus. <a href="https://zero.pindula.co.zw/workers-at-proton-marondera-contract-covid-19-report/">Earlier, we reported that authorities at the company were not taking serious measures</a> to protect workers from the virus. We present Matewu’s statement below.
<blockquote>BOYCOTT BUYING PROTON PRODUCTS UNTIL THEY SANITIZE THE BAKERY AND GET ALL EMPLOYEES TESTED FOR COVID BUY AT YOUR OWN RISK
*Proton Bakeries* – Do the right thing!!!!
It is disheartening to note that over 40 wokers at Proton Bakeries have contracted Covid 19 and yet the bakery still operates like nothing has happened.
I have been talking to various employees who say that they are still told to come to shifts and do thier jobs despite the spread of the pandemic at the workplace. Worse still most of these workers have not been tested. The senior managers are given risk allowance whilst the rest of the workers suffer. This is an indictment of corporate greed.
When a company puts profits over saving lives then you know there is something fundamentally wrong with their Directors.
Proton must immediately shut down thier plant for a week and allow ALL workers to be tested and disinfect all work stations. I will be promptly writing to the Ministry of Health and the local Provincial Medical Director PMD about the situation at one of our biggest companies.
By allowing Proton Bakeries to remain open they are now the biggest Covid 19 super spreader in our Town. The hundreds of people employed at the bakeries interact with thier families and the rest of the Marondera community therefore they have the propensity to diffuse this disease to the rest of the town.
I humbly plead with Proton Bakeries to do the right thing before the residents take it upon themselves to act.
Stay safe Covid kills

Khupe Planning To Recall Chamisa's VP, Prince Dubeko Sibanda, Matewu, Makoni And Gonese - Report

The MDC Alliance leadership has nullified Marondera Mayor Chengetai Marowa’s suspension on the basis that it was unconstitutional, Newsday reports.
Marowa had been suspended by some party district leaders for his alleged ties to Thokozani Khupe’s faction. The MDC Alliance released a statement declaring his suspension null and void and stating their reasons for doing so. The statement reads in part:
<blockquote>We want to put it clear that the mayor of Marondera, his worship Chengetai Murowa is not suspended as reported. He is not suspended as councillor, mayor or party member. The said suspension as reported is dubious, flimsy and void. Our party’s construction is very clear on disciplinary procedures.
Murowa is a member of the provincial executive and national council and in this case, cannot be suspended by a lower structure such as the constituency co-ordinating committee. All our councillors in Marondera subscribe to the leadership of MDC-A, the party that sponsored them during the 2018 harmonised elections.
If there are any other issues of disharmony of some sort the party leadership has got the capacity to unite our family for the good of Marondera residents and rate payers.</blockquote>
Marondera Central Mayor Caston Mutewu reportedly echoed the same sentiments that Marowa’s suspension was unprocedural.

<blockquote>As we drove along Longlands Road, a car with no plates was speeding straight at us so we decided to veer off the road to avoid a direct hit.
Unfortunately, the car went on to hit a tree, and two minutes after the accident, a Zanu PF branded vehicle arrived at the scene carrying people.
Before they got off, a twin cab with soldiers then arrived and then assisted us and called an ambulance.
I want to thank the unnamed army colonel for his help.</blockquote>
According to the legislator, the speeding car disappeared from the scene after the accident. Matewu who is complaining of chest pains is admitted at a private hospital in Marondera.

As a mediator, Mliswa said:
<blockquote>Members, it is important that we speak to the Speaker and the Clerk of Parliament so that we get a way forward.
Remember the damage you are causing now to your reputation will be difficult to repair. There are members of the Fourth Estate (journalists) in here.</blockquote>
PAC had convened to hear oral evidence from government-contracted inputs and equipment companies on Command Agriculture programmes.
However, Nduna disrupted the meeting, questioning Biti’s legitimacy in chairing the PAC following the MDC Alliance’s refusal to recognise President Emmerson Mnangagwa.

Marondera Central legislator, Caston Matewu (MDC Alliance) came under fire from his councillors last week who accused him of reneging on his promises during the campaign period.
In a full council meeting held in Marondera last week, the councillors took turns to lambast the MP.
However, in an interview with Newsday, Matewu denied that he had reneged on his promises. Speaking about developments that were expected to have been done on stands in Marondera’s Elmswood Farm, Matewu said:
<blockquote>It is a process that involves planning, drawing actual plans, surveying authorisation and finally purchasing of material. We have already started purchasing (material). Such a big project cannot be a sprint, but a proper execution.
No councillor has ever asked me on progress. I am surprised that this was even mentioned in a full council meeting. The issue of the ambulance, I never gave a timeline nor did I put it in writing like all other projects.
I said in time, I will acquire an ambulance for them. Remember I am not even six months into office, I have been consulting residents on a way forward and then effective development can begin. The council needs to focus on service delivery.</blockquote>
