Message: [QUOTE="Nehanda, post: 26799, member: 2262"] The Zimbabwe Rugby Union has taken action against Temba Mliswa after he spoke out about money problems at the organization. Officials decided to suspend him because he went to outside courts instead of using internal channels to resolve disputes. His decision broke Section 19.1 of the rugby constitution, which requires members to keep problems within the sport's official structure. Police arrested ZRU leaders Losson Mtongwiza and Sifiso Made following his court case. Mliswa serves as head of the Mashonaland West provincial rugby board and must attend a disciplinary hearing soon. The entire ZRU Board agreed to suspend him right away when they learned about his actions. They stated that their disciplinary process exists to handle these issues fairly without involving external authorities. Rugby officials promised Mliswa would receive a chance to explain himself during the upcoming committee meeting. The organization emphasized its dedication to creating a strong rugby community based on respect and unity. It believes these values must guide how members behave, including when they have concerns about leadership. Mliswa has repeatedly accused rugby executives of corrupt practices through posts on his X social media account. He claims the leaders misused funds and refused to provide financial records. Last Wednesday became a turning point when Mliswa brought legal action against the rugby executives. His court filing directly led to the arrests of the ZRU bosses on corruption-related charges. Mliswa defended his actions by saying he simply wanted bank statements showing how money was spent. He posted that he would continue pushing for transparency despite facing punishment from the organization. Mliswa added that attempts to intimidate him through name-dropping would not succeed.
