Tsholotsho campaign raises stink

An NGO has claimed that traditional leaders in Tsholotsho are being intimidated by Zanu-PF so that they could cajole their subjects to vote for a Zanu-PF candidate in forthcoming by-elections.

Tsholotsho North is among the 14 constituencies where by-elections will be held on June 10 after MDC-T expelled legislators linked to the MDC-Renewal faction.

Information minister Jonathan Moyo has been given a chance to have another shot at the constituency after he lost in the 2013 election to Roselyn Nkomo.

Heal Zimbabwe Trust claims that on April 7, Chief Mathuphula summoned Headmen Mahlaba, Mcetshwa and Mlevu and ordered them to ensure that Zanu-PF would win the polls.
