Vice-president Constantino Chiwenga criticized the Harare provincial executive during a Tuesday meeting at party headquarters. Goodwills Masimirembwa faced accusations of violating party protocols and prioritizing financial interests over principles. Chairperson Oppah Muchinguri-Kashiri and secretary-general Obert Mpofu attended the session with officials from various party wings. The leadership demanded an end to unauthorized central committee co-options after failed attempts to add businessman Kudakwashe Tagwirei. Chiwenga emphasized that money cannot purchase party loyalty or diminish liberation struggle sacrifices.
The provincial executive received orders to reinstate thirteen expelled youth officials who faced suspension for allegedly supporting Chiwenga as Mnangagwa's successor. Masimirembwa must redirect rental income from party properties to headquarters finance departments rather than personal accounts. The leadership demanded surrender of eighteen vehicles donated by Tagwirei to the provincial office. Masimirembwa offered apologies for procedural violations during the confrontation. Political commissar Voyage Dambuza and other executives dismissed vehicle surrender orders through WhatsApp messages.
