The ruling Zanu PF party has vowed to remove the newly appointed Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Bikita Rural District Council (RDC), Archibald Ncube, despite the fact that he just assumed his duties last week.

According to sources within the party, hardliners within Zanu PF are determined to oust Ncube from his position.

The move has sparked tension within the party, with influential members working behind the scenes to ensure his removal.

A Zanu PF source revealed over the weekend that Senator Anna Rungani, party hardliner Thomas Mataga and senior ruling party officials are
leading the efforts to unseat Ncube.

“Senator Rungani and Boss Thomas Mataga are spearheading efforts to remove Ncube from office. They want to replace him with a declared party sympathiser.

Ncube is going, they are not looking back, wait and see. They are using their political muscles to remove the new CEO from office,” the source said.

The push to remove Ncube has stirred unrest within the local political landscape, with concerns that political maneuvering and influence are overriding due process and merit-based appointments.

This development raises questions about the political dynamics at play in Bikita, as the ruling party continues to assert its power and influence within the district.
