FORMER Gokwe-Nembudziya legislator Justice Mayor Wadyajena has reportedly survived potential dismissal from the ruling Zanu-PF.
According to the party spokesperson Cde Christopher Mutsvangwa, Cde Wadyajena’s suspension was lifted together with several party members.
Cde Wadyajena was suspended last month, along with Florence Rwodzi and other senior executives in Midlands, over allegations of undermining the party’s candidates leading up to the August elections.
Other members who have had their suspensions lifted are Cdes Larry Mavhima and Jorum Gumbo, who were threatened with suspension for purportedly failing to campaign adequately for the party.
Speaking at a media briefing in Harare, Cde Mutsvangwa declared the suspensions null and void.
He cautioned party members against engaging in vindictive suspensions and urged adherence to party orders, emphasizing that ZANU-PF operates as an organized structure respecting central directives.
Cde Mutsvangwa said there should be a difference between ZANU-PF and the Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC), noting that the latter’s chaotic conduct had led to the hastened elections due to the recall of legislators and councillors.
“These suspensions are null. People must wait for a directive from the politburo, the standing order from the politburo is that there will not be a suspension,” said Cde Mutsvangwa.
He advised party members to refrain from taking actions that could lead to chaos within the party and discouraged settling scores in a retaliatory manner.
Cde Mutsvangwa emphasized the importance of unity and celebration of victories, highlighting the party’s preference for adherence to central orders.
Cde Wadyajena lost to Flora Buka in the party primaries.
