Chitungwiza Mayor Lovemore Maiko has been arrested for alleged abuse of office. Maiko was previously arrested in 2019 on allegations of abuse of office through corrupt activities involving the sale of commercial stands. He is among top officials that have been arrested in the new dispensation under President Mnangagwa, who is calling for zero tolerance to corruption. Maiko’s arrest follows the arrest of over a dozen council official at the Harare City Council on allegations of office after they allegedly sold council land unlawfully. Meanwhile, some say the central government and anti-corruption units only show enthusiasm about fighting corruption in local government authorities while corrupt senior government officials are being protected. Some say the President Mnangagwa-

Dubai based businesswoman and ZanuPF critic Edith Chibhamu is spilling the tea on Norto MP Temba Mliswa. Edith Chibhamu posted on her Facebook a post showing an employee of Temba Mliswa with his back beaten up terribly. Edith says he was beat up because Mliswa believed he stole some farm equipment.

Rival candidates have heightened their campaign activities ahead of MDC-T's extraordinary congress as the battle to control the party intensifies. Early this month, the Supreme Court gave MDC-T interim leader, Thokozani Khupe, up to November 30, 2020, to announce dates to hold the party's extraordinary congress to elect new leaders. Among those who are vying to occupy the top posts are the secretary general Douglas Mwonzora, national chairman Morgan Komichi, Paurina Mpariwa, Elias Mudzuri and Khupe. Khupe wants to retain her position as the president of the party. She is likely to battle it out with Mwonzora for the president position.

GOVERNMENT has invited the MDC Alliance and MDC-T to grace the SADC Anti-Sanctions commemorations set for 24 October. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, it remains unclear where the commemorations will be held but Zanu PF will hold an e-gala in Bulawayo. However, secretary of information Nick Mangwana has said the government had invited an invitation to the MDC-T led by Thokozani Khupe and Nelson Chamisa’s MDC Alliance to add their voices against sanctions. The West and the US imposed sanctions against Zimbabwe at the turn of the millennium accusing the Zanu PF regime of failing to obey the rule of law and implementing economic and political reforms. The West insists it willing to remove the sanctions if Harare implements the reforms. However, Mangwana confirmed the governm
Self-proclaimed Prophet Shepherd Bushiri and his wife, Mary, are among four people - both couples - who have been arrested by the Hawks over allegations of money laundering amounting to R102 million. The flashy pastor has been in the Hawks’ crosshairs for some time now, having appeared in court last week on another money laundering case. Bushiri has been dogged by scandal and scrutiny since launching a prosperity charismatic church called the Enlightened Christian Gathering. This is the second arrest of the couple by the Hawks in as many months, with the current preceded by a February 2019 action over a suspected R15 million money-laundering scheme. In a statement, the Hawks explain that Bushiri handed himself over at a Pretoria police station after trying to evade the auth
INFIGHTING and political gamesmanship have ripped apart interim MDC-T leader Thokozani Khupe's party ahead of its planned extraordinary congress to choose a substantive successor for the opposition's late founding leader, Morgan Tsvangirai. Khupe has already moved to charge her former close aide and party organising secretary Abednico Bhebhe, after the latter accused her of violating the party constitution and abusing party funds. Addressing journalists in Harare yesterday, MDCT secretary-general Douglas Mwonzora said the party's national council had resolved to take disciplinary action against Bhebhe and Paul Gorekore for breaching the code of conduct of the party. "Due to acts of indiscipline, destabilisation of the party and bringing the name of the party into

Zimbabwe wants South Africa to extradite former Local Government Minister Saviour Kasukuwere to the neighboring nation over allegations that he allocated land to a sister of the former First Lady Grace Mugabe and also engaged in some improper tender procedures.
