Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 49716, member: 636"] Christopher Mutsvangwa has taken a swipe at wealthy businessman Kudakwashe Tagwirei over his failed attempt to join Zanu PF's top leadership. The party spokesman told Tagwirei he needs to go back to school and learn about the organization before trying to grab power. Mutsvangwa said the millionaire showed uninformed ambition when he tried to force his way into the central committee. He suggested Tagwirei should start at the Chitepo School of Ideology to understand party rules and history. The businessman made his fortune from government contracts and gives lots of money to Zanu PF. Tagwirei got embarrassed when he showed up to a central committee meeting on July 3 but was kicked out. Vice President Constantino Chiwenga reportedly ordered his removal from the room. Party officials explained that Harare province recommended him but the central committee had not approved his membership first. The agenda did not include voting on new members that day. Tagwirei must wait three months for the next meeting to try again. Mutsvangwa accused Tagwirei of breaking party rules and ignoring proper procedures. He said the businessman wanted to know what power he would have but not how to use it correctly. The party spokesman believes Tagwirei should start from grassroots level instead of jumping straight to the top. Both Mutsvangwa and Chiwenga oppose Tagwirei becoming a potential successor to President Emmerson Mnangagwa. Chiwenga has called businessmen like Tagwirei corrupt people who have damaged the economy.
