Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>The former president of the Zimbabwe Congress of Trade Unions (ZCTU), Peter Mutasa, has been elected as the chairperson of Crisis In Zimbabwe Coalition (CiCZ).<\/p>\n

The election was conducted online this Wednesday and Mutasa emerged the winner after polling 53% of the vote against his rival Samuel Wadzayi who received 47% of the votes.<\/p>\n

Wadzayi is the director of an organisation that represents vendors known as the Vendors Initiative for Socio-Economic Transformation (VISET).<\/p>\n

Busi Dube was elected vice-chairperson after polling 69% ahead of Alice Kuvheya who polled 31%.<\/p>\n

Kuvheya is the director of the Chitungwiza Residents Trust (CHITREST).<\/p>\n

Other board members are; Obert Masaraure (president of the Amalgamated Rural Teachers\u2019 Union of Zimbabwe), the spokesperson, and Gamuchirai Mukura, treasurer.<\/p>\n

The election was initially held in December last year but was abandoned after suspected ZANU PF activists disrupted the elective Annual General Meeting (AGM) to block Mutasa from being elected.<\/p>\n

The disruptions necessitated the holding of the election virtually.<\/p>\n

CiCZ brings together more than 87 civil society organisations coordinating social, political, and economic consciousness in Zimbabwe.<\/p>\n
