Another ZimPF official Musonza resigns

Another provincial member of the fractious Zimbabwe People First (ZimPF) party in Mashonaland West Province has resigned citing confusion in the political outfit.

This comes amid unconfirmed reports that some active party members from the women's wing in Chinhoyi resigned from the women's executive and retraced their footsteps to the ruling Zanu-PF.

Interim provincial vice secretary in the Dr Joice Mujuru-led faction, Tendai Musonza, tendered his resignation recently, citing confusion around rights to the party.

Rival factions, with one standing in Mujuru's corner and another led by "Elders", who include Messrs Didymus Mutasa, Rugare Gumbo and Kudakwashe Bhasikiti, are laying claim to the name ZimPF.

Musonza has since written to be readmitted into MDC-T led by Morgan Tsvangirai. He said the envisaged coalition between ZimPF and MDC-T would be dictated by Tsvangirai and his party.
