Zanu PF Struggles To Implicate Chamisa In Land Corruption
By Political reporter- The Zanu PF established Harare Commission of Inquiry is struggling to implicate the people’s President Nelson Chamisa in the land scandal so that they sink his political career.
The commission yesterday grilled Chamisa, alleging that he was involved in the illegal allocating of over 5,000 stands and the regularisation of more than 300 housing cooperatives ahead of the 2023 harmonised elections.
Despite attempts by Zanu PF to drag Chamisa into a land corruption scandal, the evidence presented failed to link him to the irregularities.
Chamisa denied the allegations during his appearance, refuting claims that he had instructed Harare City councillors to fast-track land allocations to secure urban votes.
While an audio recording surfaced of Councillor Blessing Duma discussing the regularisation of settlements, Chamisa rejected the notion that he had any personal involvement with Duma.
He acknowledged, however, that his councillors had deviated from party directives, attributing their actions to “Tomfoolery” and a lack of party control.
Chamisa admitted to losing control over the councillors and revealed that attempts to introduce an Integrity and Accountability Panel within CCC to regulate their conduct were rejected.
Despite this, Zanu PF’s strategy to target CCC-affiliated housing cooperatives for demolition while sparing those linked to their own party further exposed their partisan and corrupt motives.
