ZANU PF yesterday suspended the party’s secretary for
Health Cde Cleveria Chizema for further investigation after the security
department presented a report on how internal forces are fomenting discord in
the party working with some senior officials.
Speaking after the 342nd session of the Politburo in Harare
on Wednesday, Zanu PF acting Secretary for Information and Publicity Cde
Patrick Chinamasa confirmed Cde Chizema’s suspension after fliers printed by a
former youth league official and spreading falsehoods, were found at her home.
“As of now we had only concrete evidence of fliers left at
Mai Chizema’s house in March and not removed. They were not reported to anyone
else, or to the security authorities and were found at her house just a few
days ago.
“The Politburo was not satisfied with her explanation, so
she pleaded innocent and we feel that we cannot investigate this matter
scientifically if she remains in office. She was suspended pending full
investigations. The full investigations hopefully will nail the other
individuals who have been working with outside forces,” said Cde Chinamasa.
Cde Chinamasa said that the Secretary for Security Cde
Lovemore Matuke presented a report that detailed how some outside forces were
busy fomenting discord in the party, working with some senior officials and the
rank and file to destabilise the party.
“The same individuals have been burning the midnight
candle, wishing to propagate disunity between President Mnangagwa and Vice
President Constantino Chiwenga. The culprits are trying to smear Vice President
Chiwenga at the same time trying to psyche our unsuspecting people into
thinking that the party was divided.
“That those calling for the demonstration had been funded
huge sums of money by hostile forces to print fake fliers bearing the name of
the senior leadership in the party as purportedly supporting the demonstrations
despite that such leaders have no knowledge of these culprits,” said Cde
Chinamasa.
He added that the report outlined that there is one Tinashe
Maduza, who is a former Youth League member, who was printing and distributing
fliers in the name of the party leaders. Herald
