By A Correspondent| Top constitutional lawyer Professor Lovemore Madhuku has joined the legal team representing incarcerated opposition leader Jacob Ngarivhume.

Madhuku was spotted at the High Court today where Ngarivhume’s bail appeal was set for hearing before the state requested for more time.

The National Constitutional Assembly (NCA) leader has crossed path with the bigger opposition MDC Alliance following his decision to join the President Emmerson Mnangagwa initiated Political Actors Dialogue (POLAD) which appeared to be an endorsement of the Zanu PF leader who is accused of rigging the 2018 presidential elections.

Madhuku’s coming on board raises hope for Ngarivhume who has had three bail applications thrown away by the Harare Magistrates and High Court.

Ngarivhume was arrested on the 20th of July and charged with inciting public violence after he posted on his Twitter account mobilising Zimbabweans to protest against worsening corruption levels in the country.

He together with journalist Jacob Ngarivhume have clocked 39 days in detention.
