Disgruntled Zanu PF candidates threaten to rally behind Mliswa

Zanu PF losing candidates in the party primary elections held in Norton at the weekend, have threatened to rally behind independent candidate Temba Mliswa, claiming the party rigged the polls in favour of winning candidate Ronald Chindedza.

Chindedza polled 847 votes against Joyce Mukazhu, who polled 617 votes, while Bybit Tsomondo came third with 612 votes. Other candidates who participated include Margaret Zvinavashe and Langton Mutendereki, who got 328 and 146, respectively.

The losers accused presiding officer Shadreck Mashayamombe from Harare province of tinkering with the votes to give Chindedza the upper hand.
