By Political Reporter- The country’s most popular politician and former CCC leader, Nelson Chamisa, has been summed to appear before the Justice Maphios Cheda-led Commission of Inquiry into the state of the Harare City Council.
The mission wants Chamisa to provide insights into the council’s operations during his tenure.
Zanu PF established the commission to probe allegations of mismanagement and chaos within the Harare City Council, which has been scrutinised for its administrative challenges.
Once at the helm of the party that led the council, Chamisa is expected to shed light on governance issues, although he stepped aside from CCC leadership prior to the recent upheavals.
Observers note that the current turmoil in the council has been largely attributed to Sengezo Tshabangu’s controversial role in reshaping the council’s leadership.
Tshabangu, who is accused of appointing councillors outside the party’s official processes, has drawn criticism for contributing to instability.
Critics argue that these developments occurred after Chamisa had distanced himself from active council leadership, exonerating him from direct involvement in the alleged mismanagement.
