Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>All CCC candidates who were recalled last month filed nomination papers for re-election on Tuesday in defiance of self-proclaimed party interim secretary general Sengezo Tshabangu who initiated the expulsion from Parliament, reported ZimLive<\/b>.<\/p>\n

Tshabangu also fielded his own candidates under the CCC banner.<\/p>\n

The nomination court sat in Bulawayo, Matabeleland North, Matabeleland South, and Harare provinces to receive applications from aspiring candidates for nine National Assembly constituencies.<\/p>\n

Nine of the recalled CCC MPs were elected directly through the ballot while the other five MPs were beneficiaries of the proportional representation dispensation.<\/p>\n

In Bulawayo, the recalled MPs namely Desmond Makaza (Mpopoma-Mzilikazi), Eric Gono (Lobengula-Magwegwe), Nichola Watson (Bulawayo South), Obert Manduna (Nketa) and Pashor Raphael Sibanda (Cowdray Park) successfully filed their papers.<\/p>\n

Tshabangu also fielded his candidates in these constituencies, namely, Charles Moyo (Mpopoma-Mzilikazi), Tendai Nyathi (Lobengula-Magwegwe), James Sithole (Bulawayo South), Ambrose Sibindi (Nketa) and Vusumuzi Chirwa (Cowdray Park).<\/p>\n

ZANU PF will be represented by Dzingai Kamamba (Mpopoma-Mzilikazi), Menziwa Dube (Lobengula-Magwegwe), Raj Modi (Bulawayo South), Albert Mavhunga (Nketa), and Arthur Mujeyi (Cowdray Park).<\/p>\n

Former legislator, Prince Dubeko Sibanda, who was recalled by Douglas Mwonzora, and then by Tshabangu, also filed to regain his seat in Binga North under CCC.<\/p>\n

He will contest against Judith Sibanda (CCC) and Chineka Muchimba (ZANU PF).<\/p>\n

In Lupane East, former MP Bright Vanya Moyo (CCC) will contest for the seat with David Nyathi (CCC) and Phathisiwe Machangu (ZANU PF).<\/p>\n

Recalled Beitbridge West constituency MP, Morgan Ncube also filed under CCC.<\/p>\n

In Mabvuku-Tafara, Tshabangu did not field a candidate. Recalled CCC legislator Febion Kufahakutizwi will run against gold dealer Pedzisayi \u201cScott\u201d Sakupwanya (ZANU PF), who lost to the same opponent in August.<\/p>\n

ZAPU, a party with strong roots in Matabeleland, also fielded candidates in several constituencies.<\/p>\n

However, Mwonzora\u2019s MDC-T, which failed to win a single seat during by-elections held in March last year and harmonised elections this year, boycotted the polls.<\/p>\n

The by-elections are set for 09 December this year.<\/p>\n
