THE Deputy Prime minister of Zimbabwe, Professor Arthur Oliver Guseni Mutambara Nicodemously visited Ms Priscilla Musihayirambwi Mushonga at her house to beg her for the DPM post, a High Court Judge has said.

In his judgement on the ongoing power wrangle between Professor Welshman Ncube and Prof Mutambara over the leadership of the Movement for Democratic Change, Justice Lawrence Kamocha wrote on page 3, fourth paragraph:

"The Deponent averred that on 20 January 2011, the Respondent approached at her house and asked her in her new capacity as secretary general of the party to convene a meeting with the new president of the party to discuss his role in the inclusive government.

"He allegedly made a variety of suggestions which would enable him to remain as DPM, but which also enable the new president of the party to play his role as the principal under the Global Political Agreement.

"She agreed to convey the suggestions to the new president of the party which she did. She averred that at no time during these discussions did Respondent question or dispute the validity of the congress of elections of the party's leadership.

"She was in fact surprised why he had suddenly turned around to say he did not recognise the very leadership from which he had frantically sought to remain in his position as DPM until June 2011," reads the Judgement in part.

The learned judge confirmed an earlier relief order barring Prof Mutambara from masquerading as the MDC leader.




The power wrangle between Prof Ncube and his east while friend Prof Mutambara started in January this year at the MDCD congress in Harare. Prof Mutambara led a group of 13 rebels who argued that there was a breach of processes that led t the subsequent election of Prof Ncube as the party president.

They thus contested the legitimacy of the party structure that immerged from congress deliberations and elections.
