OPPOSITION Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) Zimbabwe vice-president, Otilia Monfort Mathe, who was elected in May at a congress in Nkayi, has resigned from the party.

Siphiwo Ngwenya told journalists in Bulawayo that Mathe was replaced by former party secretary-general Jackie Mugwazi.

Ngwenya said Mathe resigned on October 12.

“EFF Zimbabwe president Innocent Ndibali has also made further re-deployments within the members of the top leadership. The members have been given various functions and responsibilities as we go towards the elections,” Ngwenya said.

He said Witness Hove took over from Mungwazi as secretary-general while Justice Faya is now the party’s national chairperson.
