UPDATE: 11 Candidates Have Registered To Run In Zimbabwe's Presidential Election
1 year agoThu, 22 Jun 2023 08:17:14 GMT
Eleven candidates have registered to run in Zimbabwe’s presidential election which is a huge decrease from a record number of 23 candidates who contested in the 2018 presidential election. The eleven candidates include the current president, Emmerson Mnangagwa.
Mnangagwa’s main challenger is Nelson Chamisa from the opposition Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) party. Other candidates include
- Douglas Mwonzora (MDC-T),
- Trust Chikohora (Zimbabwe Coalition for Peace and Development),
- Lovemore Madhuku (National Constituent Assembly (NCA),
- Blessing Kasiyamhuru (Zimbabwe Partnership for Prosperity Party),
- Saviour Kasukuwere (former youth minister – Independent),
- Joseph Makamba Busha (Freezim Congress Party),
- Wilson Harry Peters (Democratic Opposition Party),
- Gwinyai Muzorewa (United African National Council (UANC)) and
- Linda Masarirwa (Labour, Economists and African Democrats (LEAD), the only woman in the contest.
The final tally of successful applicants will be announced by the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission on Thursday (today).
The Republic of Zimbabwe is preparing for its upcoming general election, which is scheduled to take place on August 23. The election will determine the country’s next president, as well as parliamentary and local government representatives for the next five years.
The number of nominations has reduced, partly due to the high registration fees required. To participate in the presidential election, a candidate was required to pay US$20,000 (R400,000) for registration. The Nomination Court also demanded US$1000 (R20,000) for parliamentarians at provincial courts, and US$200 (R4,000) for those aspiring to Senate seats.

I Iove Kasukuwere because Zanu (Coup) is presented with two fronts to fight .The coup detat party may may ignore Tyson at the peril of of Emmerson. He may not win but his support must not be under estimated.
This leaves Chamisa with a little task of convincing his rural constituance of what he can deliver.

The entry by Saviour Kasukuwere into the Presidential race is astonishing and very questionable indeed. He did not come himself, but sent proxies to do the job for him. [ CITIZENS MUST VOTE FOR CHAMISA CHETE CHETE FOR REAL CHANGE/SHANDUKO ]. If Kasukuwere comes home, is he not going to be arrested by the state agents ? Kasukuwere must have done this for a purpose. What is his purpose ? Who should get worried with Kasukuwere's entrance ? [ CITIZENS MUST DUMP ZANU PF INTO DUST BINS FOR BEING GOLD MAFIA CRIMINALS ]. Kasukuwere enjoys some form of support because he was a senior official in ZANU PF before he was forced to go to South Africa. I do not see him coming to campaign with others.
[ THE BUSH LAWYER4CCC ].

For the record he is already home and he was not arrested @CHAWABVUNZA These Zanu guys are very calculative They will find an opportune time to nab him Not now anywhere with all this hype about registration

@cde are you forgetting that Mteki left POLAD a few years ago after 're-joining' Zanu PF? 😂😂😂

Fr yr won information @anonymous - no one knows where kasukuwere is. His presidential nomination was done by his lawyers. According to independent news, it was stated that passenger number 34 on board a plane wc was landing on RGM Airport was supposed to be kasukuwere. By so doing military presence was noticed roaming around to scrutinise e presence of kasukuwere. Unfortunately he was not found.

Ndine hurombo Firimoni kuti Kasukuwere has already been registered as a presidential aspirant.
Secondly, only convicted felons can be disqualified. If the courts havent found you guilty, even you are facing 99 cases pending in Court, you can not be disqualified.
Sorry Firimoni chikoro chishoma pauri.
