shock court victory…Saviour Kasukuwere

A sad cloud hovered on Morgan Tsvangirai’s MDC-T party’s Harvest House building today, as the High court dismissed an application in which Harare Mayor Bernard Manyenyeni, was challenging his suspension by controversial local government minister, Saviour Kasukuwere.
Justice Mary-Zimba Dube last week had heard the case and reserved judgement.
Lawyers representing Manyenyeni, David Hofisi and Dzimbabwe Chimbga, confirmed to ZimEye.com the mayor has lost the case. Earlier on as they were still at court at 11am, a senior official within the Zimbabwe Lawyers Human Rights, an organisation representing the Harare Mayor, who refused being cited due to authorisation issues, said they have lost the case. ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW-
“Yes, it is true, but for more details please get in touch with the lawyers who are still at the courts, ” the official told ZimEye.com.
At 1.45pm, advocate Dzimbabwe Chimbga, finally told ZimEye that it is true that Kasukuwere has won. Questioned on the basis of the judgement and if they will appeal, he told ZimEye, “we have not seen the judgment yet but we intend to appeal as per client’s instructions.”
MDC-T spokesperson Obert Gutu said he had not yet received the judgement, at the time of going to press.
“I haven’t been advised of the judgement yet,” he responded.
The development may serve to vindicate the popular analyst, Brett MuVet, who warned the Mayor against going to court, shortly before Brett was attacked by MDC loyalists for expressing his views that the courts would not rule in their favour.

Manyenyeni (MDC-T) was on the 20th April last month suspended by Kasukuwere on allegations of insubordination.
Kasukuwere said that Manyenyeni and some City of Harare Councillors had acted unlawfully and defied his directive ordering them not to approve the appointment of banker James Mushore to the position of Town Clerk.

  1. You see this is what happens to imbeciles like you and the MDCT hierarchy when it comes to law. Because you won a recent court case about demonstrations, then you think you can interpret the law better than the court itself. I knew that the Mayor was taking an idiot’s advice, and now those other idiots who are refusing a council audit will follow headlong. Mushore is also a big time loser,Useless opposition!

  3. It’s all political, the suspension is unconstitutional without a doubt, but the commissar is at work, preparing the ground for the 2018 plebiscite.
