Mahere Says CCC’s Candidate Selection Process Would Be Different From Previous Ones

Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. The opposition Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) has said the party’s candidate selection process would be different from previous selection processes.

The party’s spokesperson, advocate Fadzayi Mahere made the remarks during a press conference held in Harare on Thursday last week. She said:

President Nelson Chamisa, our change champion in chief, is on record saying that our candidate selection process for 2023 will be a departure from the past.

All candidates are going to be selected by the communities they wish to represent.

What we implore the citizens to do is plug into the community candidate selection process, it’s no longer business as usual where a candidate is forced upon a particular community, people are going to choose for themselves,” said Mahere.

People are going to lead in terms of the criteria we are doing.

Some consultations people insist on a person who lives in the community, a person who has integrity, a person who is competent, a person who believes in the transformation agenda.

So all these things are going to be in the criteria we are going to use but the citizens of the siding because the key guiding philosophy of CCC is that citizens should be at the forefront of all decisions that are made.

Normally political parties hold primary elections to allow their structures comprising approved members to select candidates to represent them in national elections.

Mahere told ZimLive.com that her party was going “to roll out the full details” about the new approach “at the appropriate time.”
