Thokozani Khupe Recalls Deputy Mayor And Ten More MDC Alliance Councillors

Thokozani Khupe recalls eleven MDC Alliance city councillors in Harare.

Local Government minister July Moyo has instructed the town clerk to inform the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission  (ZEC) that the wards are now vacant. By-elections will be held by December 5, according to ZEC.

The recall comes days after Khupe’s MDC-T failed to win the mayoral vote on the back of recalling ten other MDC Alliance councillors including former mayor Herbert Gomba.

Those recalled include Harare’s deputy Mayor Mupamawonde Enah of Ward 35, Makuwerere Lovemore of Ward 24, Hadebe Gilbert of Ward 39, Kufahakutizwi Munyaradb of Ward 19, Mapanzure Simon of Ward 34, Chidhagu Charles of Ward 30, Charumbira Keith of Ward 8, Dhliwayo Steven of Ward 40, Ndira Barnabas of Ward 21, Runyowa Chihoma of Ward 29, and Nyatsuro Charles of Ward 6.

The letter by the Minister of Local Government, July Moyo reads:
