The six are Member Mutinha, Aleck Munhava, Alton Manjonjo, Morgan Gora, Nobo Mahobo and Taurai Machipisa. ---------- Latest itel S24 available on Pindula: 128GB storage, 4GB RAM $119 USD WhatsApp: +263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 Buy Online: https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-s24-128gb-22-20240426142756795795/?s=wanews ---------- They are challenging the decision which was taken by Hurungwe West district administrator (now District development co-ordinator (DDC)) to remove them from their positions as traditional heads without a charge. In his founding affidavit, one of the affected headmen, Mutinha, who is cited as the first applicant said: > During a campaign rally held on Sunday, April 26, 2015, at Nyambuya Primary School Ignatius Chombo, then minister of Local Government, who administered the affairs of traditional leaders, openly accused me (Mutinha) and my co-applicants of not supporting Zanu PF and its preferred candidate, Keith Guzah, and openly announced our unsuitability to be village leaders. > I further aver that during the period extending from April 26, 2015, to May 10, 2015, the first respondent (Chief Nyamhunga (Boniface Chinehasha)) personally invited myself and my co-applicants to his homestead and issued us with verbal dismissal from traditional leadership positions as village heads… The matter is pending. ZANU PF has in the past been accused of commandeering traditional leaders and using them as its foot soldiers during political campaigns ahead of general elections. *More: NewsDay* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
