However, the issue appears to be a tough one to handle for
Council with some saying there was a procedural flaw since the mayor, Owen
Chauruza, did not attend the meeting.
Kaitano, who is a lawyer by profession, was relieved of his
duties during a full Council extraordinary meeting that was held last week in
Council chambers.
The meeting, which suspended the Town Clerk, was chaired by
the Deputy Mayor, Councillor Chipo Mhlotshwa.
Ironically, Kaitano and the Mayor, Owen Charuza, were in
Harare attending to the performance-based signing contracts.
Council Spokesperson, Tichaona Mlauzi, told H- Metro he did
not attend the meeting that suspended the Town Clerk.
“The Mayor and Town Clerk were in Harare where they were
signing their performance-based contracts with President ED Mnangagwa, so I
don’t have any comment at the moment.
“I have to wait for the full Council minutes to comment, “
said Mlauzi.
Charuza declined to comment referring all issues to
Mhlotshwa.
“I am sure you heard that correctly, the meeting was
chaired by the DM (Deputy Mayor) so she is the best to answer to that.
“You want to hear what transpired.
“I am not the right person for you to be asking. Am sorry
for that,” said Charuza.
Deputy Mayor Mhlotshwa said: “I have nothing much to say of
the said suspension pending implementation of the Council resolution, “ said
Mhlotshwa.
Combined Chinhoyi Residents Association (CCRA) chairman,
Tendai Musonza, said:
“The TC ‘s suspension was long overdue.” H Metro
