Reruns will be held in Mbare, Churu, Gokwe Nembudziya, Insiza South and Zvimba West constituencies at a date to be announced.
Zanu-PF held three sessions of the Politburo to consider and endorse the successful candidates who will represent the party during the harmonised elections set for this year.
Announcing the names of successful candidates in the remaining four provinces in Harare yesterday, Zanu-PF National Political Commissar Mike Bimha said there were some omissions to enable provinces to clarify certain matters.

Bimha said some of the omissions are in Makoni South were Albert Nyakuedzwa will represent the party, while Mutasa North will be represented by Obey Bvute. Misheck Mugadza will represent Mutasa South constituency.
