Disputed interim Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) secretary-general Sengezo Tshabangu said the party will win the Pelandaba-Tshabalala constituency in today’s by-election.
Speaking to <a href="https://newsday.co.zw/southerneye/news/article/200022620/tshabangus-ccc-confident-of-victory">Southern Eye</a>, Tshabangu’s spokesperson Khaliphani Phugeni expressed confidence their candidate, Moreblessing Tembo, will win. He said:
<blockquote>
Campaigning was very peaceful, we were going door-to-door, which we found to be a very effective method of selling our candidate to the voters and we do it with the candidate so she can meet the voters face to face.
They asked questions and she answered, we also distributed flyers and pasted posters.
We feel the ground is fertile and we are very optimistic of a win.
</blockquote>
ZANU PF Bulawayo provincial spokesperson Archibald Chiponda, however, said their candidate Joseph Tshuma, a former MP for Mpopoma, is not an outsider but is known in the constituency. Said Tshuma:
<blockquote>
He is a known member of the Bulawayo community he is seeking to represent. We are coming from general elections and more by-elections, so we are prepared in terms of campaign preparedness, this is something as an organisation we are very used to.
</blockquote>
The Pelandaba-Tshabalala National Assembly constituency seat was won by CCC’s Gift “Ostallos” Siziba in the 2023 general elections but he was later recalled by Tshabangu.
Siziba successfully filed nomination papers to contest the seat in today’s by-elections on a CCC ticket but Tshabangu obtained a court order to bar him (Siziba) and more than 20 other candidates from running under the party’s banner.

Tshabangu’s CCC Confident Of Victory

The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) says it is 100 per cent ready to conduct by-elections this Saturday, with the distribution of ballot papers already done.
ZEC vice chairperson Rodney Kiwa said that about 230 400 ballot papers have been printed for the six constituencies, while 136 850 ballot papers were printed for local authority by-elections.
552 polling stations will used in the by-elections.
Six National Assembly constituencies will be having by-elections, that is, Seke, Goromonzi South, Pelandaba-Tashabalala, Chegutu West, Zvimba East, and Mkoba North.
On Friday, disputed CCC interim secretary-general Sengezo Tshabangu successfully obtained leave of the High Court to execute the court’s judgment, granted two weeks ago, barring the 23 CCC party candidates from contesting in the by-elections.
Justice Pisirayi Kwenda, who presided over the case a fortnight ago, ruled in Tshabangu’s favour again and granted the latter leave to execute pending an appeal by the party’s recalled elected representatives in the Supreme Court.
Those barred from contesting in the polls on a CCC ticket include deputy spokesperson Gift “Ostallos” Siziba who was a legislator for Pelandaba-Tshabalala, the former CCC Chief Whip Amos Chibaya who was Mkoba North Member of Parliament, and Stephen Chagwiza who was representing Goromonzi South.
Former Harare Mayor Ian Makone who was Councillor for Ward 18 is also among the 20 councillors who were barred from contesting in today’s by-elections.

ZEC Says Ready For Today’s By-elections

The High Court in Harare on Friday, 02 February granted CCC’s disputed Interim Secretary General, Sengezo Tshabangu, leave to execute pending an appeal by the party’s recalled elected representatives in the Supreme Court, the court’s judgment which removed the names of the affected members from the ballot papers for tomorrow’s by-elections.
Tshabangu approached the High Court after the former MPs and Councillors, whom he recalled, among them Amos Chibaya and Gift “Ostallos” Siziva, successfully filed nomination papers to contest the 03 February by-elections.
The former CCC MPs and councillors then appealed against the High Court ruling at the Supreme Court, which is yet to make a ruling on the application.
Since it is a generally acceptable principle that at common law the noting of an appeal suspends the operation of a judgment, Tshabangu approached the High Court to ensure that the ruling that barred the recalled members from running in tomorrow’s by-elections, is enforced pending appeal.
In his ruling, Justice Pisirayi Kwenda declared:
<blockquote>
The application be and is hereby granted.
The applicants be and are hereby granted leave to execute this court’s judgment in case no HCH 197/24 pending the appeal in case no SC44/24.
Each party shall bear its costs.
</blockquote>
This means that the likes of Chibaya and Siziva will not stand for Mkoba North and Pelandala-Tshabalala, respectively, as CCC candidates in the 03 February by-elections.

03 Feb. By-elections: High Court Shuts Door On Chibaya, Ostallos

Forever Associates of Zimbabwe Trust (FAZ), a ZANU PF proxy infamous for allegedly intimidating rural voters during the August 2023 general elections, has allegedly deployed its agents to six constituencies holding by-elections on 03 February.
By-elections will be held in Pelandaba-Tshabalala, Mkoba North, Chegutu West, Zvimba East, Seke, and Goromonzi South following recalls of the constituency legislators, all sponsored by CCC, by the party’s disputed interim secretary-general Sengezo Tshabangu.
According to <a href="https://newshubzim.co.zw/2024/02/01/faz-in-mass-deployments-ahead-of-weekend-by-elections/">NewsHub</a>, FAZ, which is linked to the Central Intelligence Organisation (CIO), has deployed hundreds of its agents to the constituencies to monitor the situation, gather intelligence and covertly intimidate voters.
Kudakwashe Mavula Munsaka, the FAZ president, confirmed the mass deployments to the NewsHub. He said:
<blockquote>
Our organisation prioritises ZANU PF campaigns and each time the party is going into an election, we go on the ground to work. This has happened with regard to the coming Saturday by-elections.
At present, our volunteers (agents) are focusing on campaigning and we are yet to decide as to whether they should be party agents.
</blockquote>
A reported 5 000 FAZ agents were deployed throughout the country to clandestinely gather voter data and collect intelligence that was transmitted to the CIO ahead of the August 2023 general elections.
Just before polls opened on 23 August 2023, FAZ distributed fliers meant to mislead voters that the opposition had disengaged from the polls but the campaign was largely ignored.
FAZ agents also established “exit poll” booths and tables within and outside polling stations.
This was condemned by observer missions as well as the opposition who said the move was a strategy meant to intimidate voters.

FAZ In Mass Deployments Ahead Of 03 February By-elections

The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) said that it is ready for the 03 February 2023 by-elections.
The by-elections were necessitated by the recall of sitting MPs and councillors, who were elected under the CCC banner in the August 2023 General Elections, by disputed interim secretary-general, <a href="https://pindula.co.zw/Sengezo_Tshabangu">Sengezo Tshabangu</a>.
ZEC vice chairperson <a href="https://pindula.co.zw/Rodney_Kiwa">Rodney Kiwa</a> on Monday told <a href="https://www.herald.co.zw/all-in-place-for-feb-3-by-elections/">The Herald</a> that the printing of ballots started on Saturday, while training of officials to run the elections is currently underway.
Kiwa also said at least 230 000 ballot papers for the National Assembly elections will be printed and 144 000 will be printed for the local authorities’ polls. He said:
<blockquote>
We had budgeted for plus or minus US$6 million, but now that there will be fewer people on the ballot papers, I think the budget will also go down.
Yes, our constituency election officers, ward election officers, election agents and everyone else underwent a training programme for the election to make sure that everyone is clear about what is expected of them on election day.
We have 552 polling stations, election material and equipment in place and we are printing 230 400 ballot papers for National Assembly then 144 000 for local authorities and this will be done by the printing and minting company of Zimbabwe.
</blockquote>
On 19 January, the Harare Division of the High Court upheld a challenge by Tshabangu to bar 23 recalled National Assembly and local authorities candidates from participating in the polls. Said Kiwa:
<blockquote>
Everything is now in place, like I said earlier the only thing that was keeping us anxious was the court decision, but now that has been decided and finalised so we are good to go.
We just want to appeal to people to be peaceful and turn out for the elections, please exercise your right it’s important and it’s an opportunity to decide your leadership.
So, we expect people to exercise their constitutional right, we encourage and it’s part of our voter education.
</blockquote>
Those barred from contesting in the polls under the CCC banner include deputy spokesperson, Gift Ostallos Siziba who was the MP for Pelandaba-Tshabalala, the former leader of the opposition in Parliament Amos Chibaya who was also Mkoba North MP, and Stephen Chagwiza who was representing Goromonzi South.
CCC spokesperson Promise Mkwananzi on Tuesday said the party will challenge the High Court ruling at the Supreme Court.

All In Place For 03 February By-elections

The opposition Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) has dismissed the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission’s (ZEC) move to declare five ZANU PF candidates duly elected as members of the local authorities ahead of the 03 February 2024 by-elections.
ZEC made the declaration following the 19 January 2024 High Court order that nullified the nomination of the CCC candidates to contest the wards.
The wards are as follows: Chiredzi Town Council’s Wards 6 and 7, Harare Municipality’s Wards 5 and 18, and Manyame RDC Ward 7.
In a statement, CCC national spokesperson Promise Mkwananzi said ZEC rushed its decision as the stipulated timeline for the party to lodge its appeal with the Supreme Court has not yet lapsed. Said Mkwananzi:
<blockquote>
Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) wishes to inform members of the public that the statement by the Zimbabwe Election Commission (ZEC) alleging that our candidates have been barred and therefore ZANU PF candidates have been duly elected following the High Court ruling of the 19th of January 2024 is false, inaccurate, misleading and premature.
We are still well within the stipulated timeline to lodge our appeal with the Supreme Court as provided for by the law.
We are going to lodge the appeal within the stipulated timeframe and our candidates, voters, supporters and members of the public are advised to forge on with their campaigns and preparations as planned and scheduled.
We urge the Zimbabwe Election Commission to endeavour to acquit itself with the highest level of professionalism, independence and objectivity.
We do not expect the electoral management body to recklessly jump the gun in matters of such national significance as this further diminishes ZEC’s already questioned standing as credible arbiter in national electoral contestations-a point already belaboured by the opposition, civil society and all electoral observer missions that participated in the disputed August 23, 2023, general elections.
</blockquote>
According to ZEC, the following ZANU PF local authority candidates have won their seats unopposed:
<ul>
<li>Costen Mombe – Chiredzi Town Council Ward 6</li>
<li>Brighton Nyashadzashe Mahiya – Chiredzi Town Council Ward 7</li>
<li>Abdurrahman Sapa – Harare Municipality Ward 5</li>
<li>Rufaro Daniel Matsika – Harare Municipality Ward 18</li>
<li>Simbarashe Ngarande – Manyame RDC Ward 7.</li>

CCC Dismisses ZEC's Declaration On 03 February By-elections

Award-winning journalist and government critic Hopewell Chin’ono said that disputed CCC interim secretary general Sengezo Tshabangu’s failure to field candidates in five wards for the 03 February 2024 by-elections, thereby allowing ZANU PF to take them uncontested, invalidates his justification for recalling the party’s elected representatives.
Tshabangu has recalled dozens of CCC MPs and councillors since October, claiming that the affected individuals were imposed as candidates for the August 2023 general elections by some selfish party members.
Further, Tshabangu recently obtained a High Court order barring the recalled candidates, who had been sponsored by CCC leader Nelson Chamisa and his allies, from running in the by-elections.
This prompted the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) to declare that the five ZANU PF candidates for the respective wards “have been duly elected as members of the local authorities with effect from the 3rd of February 2024.”
Posting on X (formerly Twitter), Chin’ono said those who still defend Tshabangu’s claim that he was resolving undemocratic issues in CCC need “to have their head examined at Ingutsheni”.
Ingutsheni Hospital is a healthcare institution located in Belmont East, Bulawayo and is the largest psychiatric hospital in Zimbabwe. Wrote Chin’ono:
<blockquote>
Anyone who still thinks that Sengezo Tshabangu is resolving undemocratic issues in the main opposition CCC needs to have their head examined at Ingutsheni.
Sengezo Tshabangu ILLEGALLY recalled 5 elected CCC councillors in these 5 wards, on account of so-called party impositions.
He went to court to block genuine CCC representatives from contesting in the upcoming by-elections which he triggered with the help of ZANUPF and captured state institutions, and he did so without even having fielded any contestants.
So essentially he gifted these 5 wards to ZANUPF, this is democracy being ripped apart right before the eyes of the whole world including the Commonwealth which the ZANU PF regime wants to join.
How does anyone sane support this retrogressive political charlatan who is removing elected officials to benefit a corrupt ruling party that has torn the country’s right to political representation into pieces?
Essentially Tshabangu has taken away the right for communities to have someone who speaks on their behalf.
ZANU PF is happy because nobody will challenge its corrupt political rule as a representative of those communities.
</blockquote>
However, self-exiled former ZANU PF Politburo member Jonathan Moyo, has defended Tshabangu, in 2015, the then MDC leader Morgan Tsvangirai failed to field candidates for the by-elections to fill vacancies that were created by his party after it had recalled several of its MPs.
Responding to Douglas Coltart who had suggested that Tshabangu was serving ZANU PF interests, Moyo said:
<blockquote>
Come on. Is this a legal or political analysis? Whatever it is, it’s very lazy, if not just outright malicious.
Whose interests did Morgan Tsvangirai serve when he recalled MPs in some 22 or so constituencies that caused the June 2015 by-elections, in which neither his MDC-T nor the PDP led by Hon Tendai Biti fielded candidates?
ZANU PF romped to victory and took control of key constituencies in opposition strongholds like Bulawayo and Harare.
Did you make the kind of noise you are making now, or that was ok because it was Tsvangirai gifting ZANU PF the constituencies in similar circumstances?
Your politics are too self-righteous. To understand the source of your political challenges, you and your lot desperately need self-examination before pointing fingers elsewhere. Introspect and learn!

Only A Madman Still Believes Tshabangu's Justification For CCC Recalls - Chin'ono

Sengezo Tshabangu, who claims to be the opposition Citizens’ Coalition for Change (CCC) interim secretary general, did not field candidates in five wards for the 03 February 2023 by-elections.
This means ZANU PF has taken the wards, which were won by CCC in the August 2023 general elections, without a single ballot being cast.
Tshabangu recently obtained a High Court order barring the recalled candidates, who had been sponsored by CCC leader Nelson Chamisa and his allies, from running in the by-elections.
The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) on Tuesday, 23 January, released the names of the CCC candidates whose nominations for the upcoming by-elections were nullified by the High Court. ZEC said:
<blockquote>
The public is hereby informed that following a High Court Order issued on the 19th of January 2024 under Case No. HCH197/24, the nomination of the Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) party candidates specified in Schedule 1 below who had been nominated for election in by-elections scheduled for the 3rd of February 2024 has been set aside.
</blockquote>
The CCC candidates whose nomination for the 3 February 2023 by-elections were set aside are:
<ul>
<li>Musingashari Musingashari – Chiredzi Town Council Ward 6</li>
<li>Roger Chikonye – Chiredzi Town Council Ward 7</li>
<li>Samuel Gwenzi – Harare Municipality Ward 5</li>
<li>Ian Muteto Makone – Harare Municipality Ward 18</li>
<li>Innocent Kuziva Haparari – Manyame RDC Ward 7.</li>
</ul>
ZEC added:
<blockquote>
Consequently, the public is hereby notified, in terms of section 125 (4) (a) of the Electoral Act [Chapter 2:13], that since only one candidate has been duly nominated for each of the specified vacant wards, the persons specified in Schedule 2 below have been duly elected as members of the local authorities with effect from the 3rd of February 2024.
</blockquote>
The ZANU PF local authority candidates who have won their seats unopposed are:
<ul>
<li>Costen Mombe – Chiredzi Town Council Ward 6</li>
<li>Brighton Nyashadzashe Mahiya – Chiredzi Town Council Ward 7</li>
<li>Abdurrahman Sapa – Harare Municipality Ward 5</li>

Tshabangu Fails To Field Candidates In Five Wards For 03 February By-elections

The opposition Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) says its candidates for the 03 February 2024 by-elections will continue campaigning despite an urgent High Court application filed by <a href="https://pindula.co.zw/Sengezo_Tshabangu">Sengezo Tshabangu</a> seeking to bar the 23 candidates from contesting on the party ticket.
The 23 CCC candidates successfully filed their nomination papers at the Nomination Court on 18 December 2023.
However, a previous High Court order barred fellow party members from contesting under the party name on the basis that they had ceased to be party members ahead of the 09 December 2023 by-elections.
In a statement, CCC spokesperson <a href="https://pindula.co.zw/Promise_Mkwananzi">Promise Mkwananzi</a> said the matter is already before the Supreme Court on an appeal basis and the party’s legal team is confident that Tshabangu’s application will be thrown out. Read the statement:
<blockquote>
Our candidates and our supporters are urged to remain focused on the campaign and prepare to vote in the upcoming by-elections while retaining our representatives our lawyers address this issue.
Our legal teams have advised that this matter is already before the Supreme Court on an appeal basis following the initial barring of our candidates on the 9th of December 2023.
It is their considered view that the high court, to which this ill-fated appeal was lodged, being a lower court, must defer this matter to the superior court, which is the Supreme Court which is in the process of determining the matter anyway. So this appeal is not urgent and must and will be thrown away.
It must be noted that Tshabangu was barred from making any further recalls until the matter is finalised in another separate appeal before the Supreme Court.
What this means is that Tshabangu is unable to make any further recalls until the determination of that matter.
But because Tshabangu and his accomplices do not have any authority over the party or its deployees other than the threat of recalls, Tshabangu has no choice but to keep threatening party deployees with recalls to threaten and force them to comply with his criminal instructions, which explains even this attempt to bar CCC from contesting.
It is sad to note that ZANU PF does not respect the will of the people and the outcome of the elections even going by their cooked figures of August 23, 2023.
Zimbabwe must put itself in a positive light by being seen to be promoting rather than stifling democratic competition.
The barring of CCC is a further dent on the regime’s image which already suffered immensely from the disputed outcome of the general elections roundly condemned by all observers.
The attempt to bar our candidates is further vindication that Zimbabwean authorities and ZEC are not interested or capable of allowing a free and fair election to take place.
Barring two or three MPs and a couple of councillors shows the extent they would have gone in August 2023 to ensure that President Nelson Chamisa’s victory was reversed.
Our lawyers are seized with this matter and are confident that it will be thrown away as it should because it’s already before a superior court.
We are also engaged on this matter politically to ensure that we continue to defend the rights of Zimbabweans to contest elections and choose leaders of their choice.
The right to vote and to be voted for was one of the primary reasons for the liberation struggle. We will continue to fight for and to defend this inalienable right.

CCC "Confident" Tshabangu's High Court Application Will Fail

<a href="https://wiki.pindula.co.zw/Sengezo_Tshabangu">Sengezo Tshabangu</a> has filed an urgent High Court application seeking to stop the participation of 23 candidates under the Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) banner in the upcoming 03 February by-elections.
The 23 CCC candidates successfully filed their nomination papers at the Nomination Court on 18 December 2023.
This was despite the fact that a previous High Court order had barred fellow party members from contesting under the party name on the basis that they had ceased to be party members ahead of the 09 December 2023 by-elections.
In his application, through his legal representative, Nqobani Sithole of Ncube Attorneys, Tshabangu, who claims to be the CCC Interim Secretary General, cited the 23 members and the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) as respondents.
Tshabangu argued that the recalled candidates are no longer CCC members hence should not contest under the party name. Part of the application reads:
<blockquote>
The application is made on the grounds that: On the 18th of December 2023, the Nomination Court sat consequent upon promulgation of the date for by-elections set down on the 3rd of February 2024.
First to twenty-third respondents submitted their nomination papers before the Nomination Court to be accepted as candidates in the by-election as “members” of a political party called Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC party.
This was despite the fact that in a prior and extant judgment, they had been found by this court to have ceased to be members of that party. The Nomination Court accepted the nomination papers.
The decision of the Nomination Court is unlawful in that it is contrary to an extant judgment of the High Court and was at any rate procured through an apparent act of defiance of that judgment.
</blockquote>
The application seeks the court to set aside the Nomination Court’s decision to accept the 23 members’ nomination papers.
Unlike at the sitting of the nomination court for the 09 December by-elections, some recalled CCC members filed their papers as independent candidates for the 03 February by-elections to avoid being disqualified.
