FORMER ZIFA president Henrietta Rushwaya Thursday survived a bid to remove her as Zimbabwe Miners Federation (ZMF) president after the High Court dismissed an application lodged by some rivals who were challenging her legitimacy as the organisation's leader.

A group of miners under the banner of Zvishavane-Mberengwa Miners Association (ZMMA) had applied for a High Court interdict to stop her from "masquerading" as ZMF president.

The ZMF represents small-scale miners and accounts for half the country's gold deliveries.

In its court challenge, ZMMA led by Thembinkosi Sibanda accused Rushwaya of attempting to take over the leadership of ZMF through unorthodox means.
