Mnangagwa challenger trial continues

A ZANU PF member who challenged President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s ascendancy to power following the 2017 coup yesterday appeared before Harare magistrate Yeukai Dzuda for trial continuation on a charge of forgery.

Sybeth Musengezi, who is accused of fraudulently acquiring a Zanu PF membership card, was represented by Nqobani Sithole and Doug Coltart.

State witness Godwills Masimirembwa, a Zanu PF Harare chairperson, told the court that Musengezi forged his address and was, therefore, not a legitimate party member.
