Killer: I Haven't Rejoined ZANU PF
Former Chivi South MP, Killer Zivhu (ZANU PF), said that he has not rejoined the ruling party despite going on the campaign trail for its candidate ahead of the March 26 by-elections.
Zivhu recently attended a ZANU PF rally in Chivi South, where he delivered a solidarity message.
He told NewsDay that he has written to ZANU PF to be readmitted but offered himself to help the ruling party win the Chivi South seat. He said:
I have not joined ZANU PF. I am helping my former party to win back the constituency. I haven’t written any letter to be readmitted.
This is my former party just like if a former church is having a crusade, there is no need for one not to attend.I offered myself to assist not that l have been recalled or rejoined Zanu PF.
I want to categorically state that personally, I support (President Emmerson) Mnangagwa as an individual. I have been supporting him for years and I will continue to support him.
By so doing, I pledged to him that I would not campaign as an independent to divide the vote during by-elections and I will help any ZANU PF candidate out of respect for Mnangagwa.
It does not worry me a lot. I have my own reasons for supporting Mnangagwa. You can pledge to forgive someone who has killed your daughter or your mother. It is your choice to forgive.
Zivhu was expelled from ZANU PF in 2020 and later recalled from Parliament for misconduct.
The misconduct charge emanated from his call for dialogue between President Emmerson Mnangagwa and Nelson Chamisa, who at the time was leading the MDC Alliance.
