By Own Correspondent| MDC councillors from Chitungwiza were on Thursday summoned by their party president Nelson Chamisa over allegations of vote buying during the election of the town’s mayor.

Inside sources within the MDC reported that Chamisa reportedly asked the councillors to explain themselves over allegations that the mayor, Gift Tsverere, allegedly bribed Jabulani Mtunzi with a Toyota Camry vehicle which the latter made a ‘swap and top deal’ with a Chitungwiza man without Tsverere’s consent.

Said the source:

“Yes the president summoned all 20 councillors at Morgan Tsvangirai house but the matter was never discussed among all the councillors.

The President is not happy with what happened during the mayoral elections where his name was dragged into the mud.

It is also reported that Chamisa called Tsverere ordering him to withdraw the case but it seems he is not willing to do that.”

MDC National Spokesperson Jacob Mafume confirmed that all the 20 Chitungwiza councillors were at Harvest House Thursday, but could not disclose the details of the agenda of their meeting.
