Lawyer Fadzai Mahere takes over the party’s spokesperson post replacing Daniel Molekele and will be deputised by Felix Magalela Mafa-Sibanda and Clifford Hlatywayo whose post as deputy secretary for local government will be taken over by Harare councillor Jacob Mafume.

Highfield MP Happymore Chidziva will now sit in the standing committee as secretary for rural mobilisation and strategy in Chamisa’s office.
Former Local Government deputy Minister Sessel Zvidzai is the new secretary for local government.
“It is the desire to strengthen the party and some members of the standing committee have left and these are Komichi, Mudzuri and Mwonzora,” party secretary general Chalton Hwende said.
