ZANU PF national political commissar Munyaradzi Machacha has warned divisive elements in the party who are fanning internal fights saying they should stop their acts or risk expulsion.

Adressing a party inter-district meeting in Mutare, Manicaland province, Machacha said while the opposition was as good as dead due to internal fissures, Zanu PF was faced with problematic elements fanning divisions.

“We have to capitalize on the fights in the opposition and make sure that we gain ground during this period,” he said.

“We equally should not be divided. You realize that in areas where we are divided, we tend to lose when we go for elections and this is because of divisions that we create on our own,” he added.

“The opposition as we speak is as good as dead, and what is left to address is the divisions that are within our party Zanu PF, and this is significantly affecting the growth of the party.”

“The levels of divisions are worrying, and if you are the realize some of the reasons are very petty issues, and in other instances it is because of leadership positions to the extent that one opts to have the party losing elections because of a position.”

“As party members and supporters, you now are in the tendency of entertaining individuals that lose primary elections just because you have received a bribe. You then compromise the party and we all witnessed this in the past elections. Some of the culprits are with us right now.”

He said sellouts have no room in the party.

“Let us not be sellouts. Let us all stick to the party rules and regulations (and) if we go for primaries and get a candidate for elections, we support that individual.”

“We concluded elections last year but up to now, we observe there are individuals who are bent on creating divisions within the party. We are warning you against such behavior, this indiscipline should stop forthwith.”

He warned that provincial leaders will deal with divisive elements within the party structures.

“Let us mature as party members and leaders. In my conversations with the provincial leadership, l emphasized the need to effectively deal with individuals who pursue divisions in the party and l have recommended the suspension of individuals who are found guilty of this misconduct.”

“We will not allow these individuals who are weakening the party to go unpunished.”
