Political purges in the ruling Zanu-PF party are showing no signs of abating after it emerged that the Harare provincial leadership, led by Godwills Masimirembwa, is set to be axed as recriminations continue over the highly embarrassing Harare East by-election debacle in which the party initially failed to agree on fielding a single candidate.
Purges in Zanu-PF are set to continue with the party's disciplinary committee soon targeting Bulawayo, Matebeleland North and South as well as Mashonaland West provinces.
The likes of Andrew Langa, Jabulani Phetsu Sibanda, Callistus Ndlovu, Angeline Masuku, Absalom Sikhosana, and Sikhanyiso Ndlovu are all on the firing line. In Harare Godwills Masimirembwa is also set to be axed over the Harare East debacle.
In Mashonaland West former political commissar Webster Shamu, who has been trying his best to jump ship and endear himself to Vice-President Emmerson Mnangagwa, could be the biggest casualty as he is deemed one of the vital cogs in the Mujuru faction.
In Harare, Masimirembwa and beleaguered youth leader Godwin Gomwe are all in the line of fire and are set to be replaced if political commissar Saviour Kasukuwere gets his way.
