Most in the party have said Zanu PF was tearing itself because of factionalism. In an interview Zanu-PF national spokesman Cde Simon Khaya Moyo dismissed the conspiracy theories as fabrications.
“My position, really, is that give us the facts,” said Cde Khaya Moyo. “If the facts are there, we are in a better position to understand. But if it is a matter of assumptions or a matter of somebody’s suspected thoughts, the party cannot run on that. Whoever has got the facts, bring them forward and say, ‘Here are the facts’ and then the party will take appropriate action because we don’t want discord in the party.”
“Our party has all ages,” he said. “I don’t know at what age one believes he is not part of the party or this one; the elders are now not part of the party. We don’t have such a provision in our constitution. Once you are a member of the party you are a member of the party and we don’t want to categorise ourselves in terms of ages because there is no such provision.
“You are a member of the party, you are carrying a party card. But when we start to categorise membership, that’s certainly in violation of the constitution because we have no such provision,” he said.
On the recent expulsion and suspension of up to 100 members, Cde Khaya Moyo said due processes were taken to bring to book people accused of various transgressions and that those processes were initiated at provincial levels and debated in the Politburo.
“The point is that these are not kangaroo court decisions. We are a party with a constitution, with rules and regulations which apply to every member.” herald NEWS
