Last week, Mnangagwa announced members of the ZANU PF Politburo appointees among them First Lady Auxilia Mnangagwa who was appointed as the Secretary for Tourism and Hospitality.
In November 2017 Hungwe was among the many Zanu PF members censured on allegations of working with Emmerson Mnangagwa who had been fired from the Party and Government by then-President Robert Mugabe.
Hungwe was also put on the list of those earmarked for dismissal from the Party.
