Bigwigs Fall in Zimbabwe Ruling Party Primaries

While others are celebrating victory following the just ended Zanu-PF primary elections, several party head honchos including ministers Oppah Muchinguri, Mike Bimha, Simbarashe Mumbengegwi, Christopher Mushowe and top advisor to the president, Christopher Mutsvangwa, have been shown the door and will not be contesting the forthcoming polls. Cases of alleged violence, vote rigging and bribery were reported in some constituencies.
