ZANU PF Secretary for Administration Dr Obert Mpofu
Bulawayo magistrate, Nyaradzo Ringisai has cancelled a warrant of arrest which had been issued against former Minister of Home Affairs and Culture, Obert Mpofu.

The warrant of arrest was for failing to attend court.

Mpofu is expected to appear in court on November 19 to give his testimony.

Mpofu was supposed to testify in a case in which Chief Felix Ndiweni and his 13 subjects are accused of destroying a villager’s property. When Mpofu failed to appear in court, a warrant of arrest was issued against him two weeks ago. The complainant, Mr Fetti Mbele of Ntabazinduna, was banished from Sifelani village by Chief Ndiweni after his wife Ms Nonkangelo Mpengesi was allegedly caught having sex with another villager.

Mbele filed criminal charges against Chief Ndiweni after he ordered the destruction of his fence and kraal. The fence and kraal were destroyed as a result of Mbele’s alleged defiance of Chief Ndiweni’s verdict to divorce his wife after she was caught cheating. Chief Ndiweni’s lawyer, Mr Dumisani Dube, early this year asked the court to subpoena Mpofu to testify in court following allegations that he was behind the arrest and had influenced Mr Mbele to file criminal charges against them.- state media
