admincandidates and factionalism.
Zanu-PF spokesperson Cde Rugare Gumbo confirmed the development in an interview with the Herald yesterday.
“We are working on guidelines on how to conduct primary elections.
“The guidelines will provide mechanisms dealing with such issues as the imposition of candidates, which was being caused by factionalism.
“We have not yet finished drafting the guidelines but they will be completed before we go for national elections,” he said.
Asked whether there were no such guidelines before, Cde Gumbo said: “We had some in the past but a lot of amendments are being done. This is being done by the legal affairs department and will also involve the elections directorate.”
Cde Gumbo said apart from the guidelines, a mobilisation team headed by Zanu-PF Secretary for Administration Cde Didymus Mutasa was also expected to play an important role in uniting the party to ensure victory in the upcoming harmonised elections.
“The mobilisation team headed by Cde Mutasa will play an important role in addressing issues to do with factionalism,” he said.
