Zanu-PF Secretary for the Women’s League, Mabel Chinomona, says women in the party are solidly behind the decision by the Youth League to call for the investigation of individuals named for alleged corruption.

Addressing a Zanu-PF Women’s League National Assembly meeting at the party headquarters, Chinomona said the women are happy that the people were exposed and they must now be fully investigated.

“As women, we support what the youth did. We know other people who were named are complaining. That is why there should be an investigation, as a result there is nothing for them to worry about. We would also want to commend you President for the decision to constitute a commission of inquiry into the allegations,” said Chinomona, who is also Senate president.

She said the Zanu-PF Women’s League was behind the President and wants him to represent the party as its Presidential candidate in 2023.

“We have agreed as the Women’s League that we will stand by President Mnangagwa.

“We have noted that there might be misguided elements, but they will not distract us; we are fully behind you,” she said.

Chinomona added that President Mnangagwa’s great work was manifesting itself through the support from rural women, who threw their weight behind him.
