By A Correspondent- Zanu PF Harare Province District Coordinating Committee (DCC) chairman Godwin Gomwe has scoffed at his purported suspension from his position for indiscipline.

The party’s interim chairperson for Harare Metropolitan Province Oliver Chidawu signed a prohibition letter written to Gomwe accusing him of posting statements on social media that tarnished the characters of some senior party officials.

Gomwe told the state media that as acting chairperson, Chidawu did not have authority to institute disciplinary proceedings against him.

Said Gomwe:

Yes, I received a prohibition order from the acting provincial chairman Chidawu, he said. Unfortunately, he does not have the right to give me a prohibition order since he is not a substantive chairman. I will carry on with my duties as the DCC 2 chairperson.

According to the letter, a meeting of the provincial co-ordinating committee that was held on May 28, 2020, resolved to have Gomwe suspended.

Chidawu added that the meeting resolved to recommend to institute disciplinary proceedings against Gomwe by the National Disciplinary Committee.
