MUJURU MPs FACE THE SACK The hounding of Joice Mujuru aligned politicians continues with many across the provinces facing the prospect of being recalled from Parliament. Mashonaland Central Zanu-PF has already set the ball rolling calling for the recalling of Mujuru MPs. Nine legislators from the province are affected. Other provinces are expected to follow Mash Central lead. Mashonaland Central chairperson Cde Dickson Mafios said the nine were facing serious allegations as they were implicated in fanning factionalism and working in cahoots with those who were seeking to unseat President Mugabe. The nine are Cdes Nicholas Goche (Shamva North), Walter Kanhanga (Guruve North), David Butau (Mbire), Chriswell Mutematsaka (Guruve South), Edgar Chidavaenzi (Mazowe North), Kenneth Musanhu (Bindura North), Christopher Chitindi (Muzarabani South), Elizabeth Shongedza and Alice Chimbudzi (Mashonaland Central Senator). “There are certain MPs who were also implicated in (US Embassy official) Mr Eric Little’s saga, known as the ‘Dirty Dozen’ and some of them come from Mashonaland Central and others are linked to former Vice President Mujuru,” Mafios told The Herald. “We held our first provincial co-ordination committee meeting in Mbire on Tuesday and it was resolved that because of the seriousness of the (Dr) Mujuru matter, we cannot continue to work with some of the MPs who were in her camp. We resolved that such MPs be relieved of their duties. “Right now we don’t know what they are planning as they were loyal to Cde Mujuru. There are also rumours that they want to impeach President Mugabe if they unite with the MDC-T. So, right now we are not sure if their allegiance is towards the President and how loyal they are to Government.” Midlands provincial chairperson Cde Kizito Chivamba said at their last provincial co-ordinating committee meeting in Gweru, there was a loud cry for Dr Mujuru’s allies to be booted out. “But the leadership said we should wait for guidance on the matter. But we are certain that those MPs will not repent and that is the reason they even boycotted the PCC. “We are investigating them and when we meet again we will consider the issue. But let me say Mashonaland Central’s position is national. It’s shared by all provinces,” he said.
