He took over from Justice George Chiweshe who was later appointed Judge President of the High Court. He resigned from the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission on 11 February 2013 a few months before the referendum on the draft Constitution and harmonised elections slated for that year. Mutambanengwe resigned on health reasons. However, Government sources interviewed at the time of Mutambanengwe’s resignation said that he was allegedly pushed out of ZEC for his outspokenness and independent views by a Zanu-PF faction that viewed him as a danger to their political survival ahead of the 2013 elections. _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
