Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>ZANU PF candidate for Mabvuku-Tafara National Assembly constituency in the 09 December by-elections, Pedzai Sakupwanya, handed out maize, flour and bread to ZANU PF supporters in the constituency on Thursday.<\/p>\n

NewZimbabwe.com<\/b> reported that a queue made up of the elderly, school-going children and youths snaked around Mabvuku Stadium as the residents tried to get the freebies from the gold dealer.<\/p>\n

Residents received a 10kg bag of maize meal, 2kg packet of flour and a loaf of bread each.<\/p>\n

Sakupwanya, a former councillor in Harare, was defeated by the Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) candidate Munyaradzi Kufahakutizwi in Mabvuku-Tafara at August\u2019s General Elections.<\/p>\n

The two men\u2019s names are on the ballot paper again for the by-election following the recall of Kufahakutizwi by Sengezo Tshabangu, a CCC activist who claims to be the party\u2019s interim secretary-general.<\/p>\n

The event was attended by ZANU PF Harare provincial chairman Godwills Masimirembwa and ZANU PF Treasurer Patrick Chinamasa.<\/p>\n

Chinamasa stood in for Vice President Constantino Chiwenga as Guest of Honour.<\/p>\n

Chiwenga was at the Harare Magistrates Court, where his ex-wife Marry Mubaiwa\u2019s attempted murder case was being heard. Said Chinamasa:<\/p>\n

The fights in the CCC are an opportunity for us to win, let us win on Saturday. Their issues are not ours, those are their problems.<\/p>\n

Journalist Hopewell Chin\u2019ono urged CCC members to assist Kufahakutizwi to ensure that he reclaims the seat. Chin\u2019ono posted on X:<\/p>\n

Everyone who can MUST assist the CCC candidate for Mabvuku-Tafara to win back this constituency, this man needs to win it!<\/p>\n

… I urge ALL opposition leaders in Harare to go and campaign in Mabvuku, the symbolism of winning this seat will keep our HOPE alive!<\/p>\n
