Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>Under fire Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission (ZACC) spokesperson John Makamure reportedly visited President Emmerson Mnangagwa in a bid to the appointment of a tribunal to investigate his removal from office.<\/b><\/p>\n

Makamure reportedly visited president Mnangagwa\u2019s farm in Kwekwe on Sunday in the company of colleagues to try to stop the tribunal, but he was denied access to the President, according to NewsDay.<\/p>\n

President Emmerson Mnangagwa eventually swore in a three-member tribunal<\/b> on Monday in terms of Statutory Instrument (172 of 2022) and proclamation number 4 of 2022.<\/p>\n

The appointees are:<\/p>\n

1). Retired Justice Maphios Cheda chairperson of the tribunal.<\/p>\n

2). Lawyer Charles Warara and<\/p>\n

3). Lawyer Regai Hove.<\/p>\n

Justice, Legal and Parliamentary Affairs ministry secretary Virginia Mabiza is the secretary to the tribunal.<\/p>\n

The tribunal will investigate whether or not:<\/p>\n

i). Makamure failed to disclose his involvement in political activities which is inconsistent with the duties and functions of the commissioner of ZACC<\/p>\n

ii). Makamure directed one Lee Sung to fund his political campaign in Gokwe in return for his protection.<\/p>\n

Through a letter dated October 12, 2022, the Judicial Service Commission formally advised the President that the question of removal from the office of Makamure ought to be investigated.<\/p>\n

It is alleged that Makamure was eyeing Justice Mayor Wadyadyena\u2019s Gokwe-Nembudziya parliamentary seat in next year\u2019s elections.<\/p>\n

Following the move to investigate him, Makamure is also said to have tried to mend relations with Wadyadyena using top government officials and Mnangagwa\u2019s allies, but Wadyajena reportedly declined the gesture.<\/p>\n

The inquiry shall be held both in public and private, as the tribunal deems fit.<\/p>\n

Makamure was appointed ZACC commissioner in 2019 following interviews conducted by Parliament. He was later appointed ZACC spokesperson.<\/p>\n
