Farai Dziva|Cornered Masvingo City Mayor Collen Maboke allegedly invited MDC A secretary general Douglas Mwonzora to the ancient city to meet with the provincial executive, sources have claimed.

Maboke defied party leader Nelson Chamisa’ s directive to step down two weeks ago.Maboke is reportedly working with Mwonzora, his mentor in the legal profession, to topple Chamisa.

“The mayor is in the thick of things and he has a case to answer because a clandestine meeting was held at his offices in town,” said a member of the MDC Veterans Activists.
