ZAPU Withdraws From 09 December By-elections

ZAPU did not field any candidates for the vacant National Assembly seats in Bulawayo for the 09 December by-elections after learning that the recalled Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) Members of Parliament had decided to reclaim their seats.

This was said by ZAPU Secretary General, Mthulisi Hanana in an interview CITE.

CCC had initially stated it would not participate in the “muppet show,” and ZAPU then announced it will field candidates to stop ZANU PF from winning parliamentary seats in the city.

CCC later changed its position and its candidates successfully filed their nomination papers at the Nomination Court, forcing ZAPU to stop its members from filing. Said Hanana:

One of the major critical reasons why we were contesting this election is because we wanted to defend the city from ZANU PF. We do not want ZANU PF to benefit from these recalls.

When we discovered the MPs who had initially won indicated their party was not going to be contesting, we started our processes of nominating candidates who were going to defend the space in Bulawayo, particularly at a national level.

We were also having engagements with the affected parliamentarians behind the scenes. Now you realise these political dynamics keep changing until the final nomination day.

After seeing the affected MPs had decided to file their papers, we then resolved that our primary objective of defending the city was no longer worth investing in. That is why we asked our candidates to stand down.

Hanana said ZAPU had one candidate in Beitbridge West who had already successfully filed her nomination papers before the party could communicate with her.

The biggest thief of our generation, he stole your vote. He gave you hope, then stole it from you! He said help was on the way, and he promised you a NEW ZIMBABWE.He said God was in it. He said polling stations were covered. He has done nothing after all those promises! Job Sikhala is rotting in prison.Tendai Biti has been sidelined. Chamisa is a fraud! You voted for him, he claimed 2 million votes, and he did nothing about it to defend your vote. The very person you voted for is NOT LEADING! This is not how a leader in waiting behaves.

Not only solidarity, but I think all progressive Zinbabweans should come together.

You ZAPU, you remind me of the ZAPU of the late Father ZImbabwe, Doctor Nkomo. I want to thank all political parties which did not field candidates in these byelections. What remains now is for all opposition political parties to campaign for the CCC to show solidality. ICHO !!!!!
