Joseph Madzimure and Rejoyce Makoni, Harare Bureau

ZANU-PF has announced the final list of candidates who will represent the party in the forthcoming harmonised elections with 205 candidates cleared, and only five remaining to allow for reruns.

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 Cde Mike Bimha said there were some omissions to enable provinces to clarify certain matters.

“There were incidences where the information came a bit late, some of the information arrived while the Politburo was in session,” he said.

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

In Mutare West Constituency, Cde Brighton Manengureni sailed through. 

On Senatorial seats, Cde Wilson Khumbula won in Chipinge, while Cde Josephine Gandiya will represent Makoni. In the Women’s quota, Cde Happiness Nyakuedzwa won in Makoni.

In the Women’s quota in Mashonaland East (Seke Chikomba), Cde Tabeth Murwira sailed through.

In Goromonzi, Cde Emely Jesaya will represent the party in the Women’s quota. In Bulawayo, Cde Judith Ncube-Mukwanda will represent Pelandaba-Tshabalala.
