A senior Harare City Council official could be dismissed following his testimony at a Commission of Inquiry into the city's operations.

Matthew Marara, executive assistant to the town clerk, attracted scrutiny after speaking out against local councillors. The matter emerged when acting town clerk Phakhamile Mabhena Moyo addressed the Commission regarding Marara's alleged suspension.

The Commission learned that councilors had sought to remove Marara from his position, claiming he had betrayed their trust. A suspension letter was presented as evidence, but Mabhena Moyo declined to sign it.

"I did not sign the suspension letter because I felt that the timing was suspicious and the resolution was ambiguous," Mabhena Moyo said.

In his earlier testimony, Marara had accused council members of attempting to seize executive powers beyond their designated roles. He later appeared before the Commission in a private session to share sensitive information, including details about the recent suspension attempt.

Prior to his closed-door testimony, Marara had expressed concerns about his safety, stating he was "digging his own grave" by speaking out.
