Zimbabwe's ruling party says it will take back Walter Mzembi if he wants to return and follows their rules. The former Foreign Affairs Minister came home from exile in Zambia last week. Police arrested him at the airport because he skipped court dates for corruption charges.

Mzembi left Zimbabwe in 2018 when he faced trial for stealing government money and abusing his office. Three arrest warrants waited for him because he failed to show up in court. Reports said he planned to meet President Emmerson Mnangagwa and possibly rejoin Zanu PF after his return.

Party spokesman Farai Marapira told ZiFM radio that Mzembi must apply formally to come back. The party welcomes new members and old ones who want to return. However, they must meet all the requirements and follow party rules.

Marapira said party leaders will decide if taking Mzembi back makes sense. The former minister knows how to apply since he belonged to the group before. He must prove he deserves another chance with the ruling party.

A court denied Mzembi bail and sent him to jail until July 1. His corruption trial will start again on that date. The former minister faces serious charges that could send him to prison for years.
