Staff Correspondent|A mini shake up allegedly aimed at recently elected Zanu PF Ward 10 Cllr Sengerayi Mnyanga has caused division in the Zanu PF Masvingo Provincial Youth League structures.

Brain Munyoro who is the provincial Youth League chairman allegedly demoted Cllr Manyanga from the position of secretary general to deputy secretary for environment which is the 40th and last position in the structures of the party.

“Manyanga was demoted for reasons that I can not share with you at the moment as we are yet to inform the provincial executive committee (PEC) where we report to. As soon as that is done we will be in a position to share with the media why that was done,” said Munyoro when contacted for a comment today in the afternoon.

Manyanga also confirmed that he was demoted by a small group of the executive who are not happy with his questioning of certain decisions regarding cars and party meetings.

“Only a handful of the executive members met last week and demoted me to deputy secretary for environment while I was away. I have not received any formal communication regarding that, but in view of the latest visit by the Politiburo members at the weekend all that has been reversed and I am still the secretary general as they said there should be no reshuffling in the party,” said Manyanga.

Some members of the Youth League who spoke to The Mirror on condition of anonymity said Munyoro is being dictatorial as he is alleged to be over the age limit of 40 years hence he trying to silence those who are vocal about. it is also alleged that Munyoro once sided with former chairman Nobert Ndaarombe and jealousy of Manyanga’s position as a councillor.

The war in the Youth League is just a tip of the iceberg according to insiders as more is to likely to come as camps have started emerging following the elevation of Ezra Chadzamira to the position of Minister Of State for Masvingo Provincial Affairs ahead of the likes of Josaya Hungwe and Edmund Mhere.
