'Blessing Chebundo now politically useless' Mliswa says

Norton Member of Parliament Temba Mliswa says the former MDC members who defected to ZANU PF failed to assist the party in winning the March 2022 by-elections and were now useless.

Said Mliswa, "I thought the idea behind roping in& flaunting former MDC members such as Chebundo, Matutu Chaibva, Timveous, Gutu etc was for them to help ZANU PF win in some opposition strongholds. However after the by-elections it's clear the guys are of no use. They added nothing."

Blessing Chebundo who famously trounced current President Emmerson Mnangagwa during the 2000 parliamentary election, has vowed to help Zanu PF reclaim the seat.

"We are going to take the seat back to Zanu-PF," he declared before the elections.

"I am declaring that Kwekwe Central is a Zanu-PF seat and it is going to be won by Zanu-PF in the upcoming by-elections. There is nothing in the opposition now. President Emmerson Mnangagwa is the only future for this country. Everyone can see that the president is rebuilding our country. Even Chamisa has ditched the MDC-Alliance because there is nothing. He has only made a mistake of not coming back home," he said.
