Themba Mliswa lashes out at ZANU PF

Mliswa further revealed having personally advised Tungwarara to leave politics, warning, “The pace with which he is moving isn’t safe even for him and in ZANU-PF.”

• Party Constitution is Ignored in Manicaland: Sparking Allegations of Greed and Gender Bias

Harare, Zimbabwe – The controversial co-option of Paul Tungwarara into a ZANU PF key party position has escalated into a major test of constitutional adherence and internal integrity, following direct intervention by the Politburo. Spokesperson Chris Mutsvangwa’s insertion into the Tungwarara issue, where the constitutional requirements are explicitly clear, has been condemned as a move that “reeks of greased hands and lined pockets.”

The constitutional map for the position is unambiguous. As outlined in the nullification statement by Commissar Mike Madiro, the role is designated for a woman from the same administrative district. Tungwarara meets neither qualification. Critics assert this is not a matter of factional conspiracy but of “mere greediness among the Manicaland leadership,” alleging that various leaders were financially induced to bypass the rules.

“The party needs to be consistent in adhering to their Constitution even where individuals are paying their way up the ladder,” Mliswa stated. The flagrant disregard has raised pointed questions about the party’s commitment to women’s rights. Manicaland has capable female leaders like Angeline Gata. Overlooking such candidates, observers argue, sends a damaging message about the respect afforded to women within the party’s ranks.

We know what inflation data will be, which the market is not expecting right now.

Some have drawn parallels to the previous co-option of businessman Kuda Tagwirei in Harare, but insiders reject the comparison. “Their situations are vastly different,” Mliswa clarified. “Tagwirei has been a long-term benefactor; his ascension was natural. Tungwarara is a recent political entrant yet to make his mark.”

Mliswa further revealed having personally advised Tungwarara to leave politics, warning, “The pace with which he is moving isn’t safe even for him and in ZANU PF,” and emphasizing that the Tagwirei co-option followed constitutional processes.
