Mliswa Withdraws Bid To Halt ZIFA Elections
23 January 2025

Temba Mliswa, the disqualified ZIFA presidential candidate, has withdrawn his application to block the upcoming elections scheduled for this Saturday.
Both Mliswa and the respondents agreed that the timing of the application was inappropriate.
Mliswa was one of five candidates disqualified by the ZIFA Electoral Committee for failing to meet the association’s eligibility requirements. He had sought to challenge the election process as well as the validity and legitimacy of the new ZIFA statutes governing the upcoming election.
The court application, originally filed in the Bulawayo High Court, was later transferred to Harare.
