High Court dismisses appeal against Rushwaya

A Bulawayo High Court Justice Martin Makonese has dismissed a bid by Zvishavane-Mberengwa mining association to have the election of Henrietta Rushwaya as president of the Zimbabwe Miners Federation (ZMF) overturned after he ruled that the application was not urgent.

The Zvishavane-Mberengwa Mining Association (ZMMA) filed an urgent High Court chamber application seeking to bar her from representing the interests of ZMF after she had appealed to the Supreme Court against a recent

High Court order which stripped her of the presidency of the small-scale miners’ body.
