ZANU PF Central Committee member John Nhamburo rubbished claims by Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) that he ran over their member Shelton Zangaro with his car there by killing him on the spot yesterday in Chiweshe.
Nhamburo said he is being accused of killing Zangaro since he was very active in mobilizing support for their Mazowe ward 2 councillor Bester Mhandu who defeated CCC candidate Trymore Munaki with more than a 1000 votes.
“There was a fatal accident in Chiweshe ,Chaona where Zangaro was hit by a car and died but l was not the one who hit him as alleged by CCC Twitter handle,” explained Nhamburo.
“CCC has no chance in Mash Central province hence there are cooking stories for the party and dragging me in since l am very active in mobilizing support for my party, but l am doing this in a peaceful manner how can l become violent in an area that l know we dominate,” he added.
However, the deceased was fatally knocked down by Vote Chidanhamabwe in a road traffic accident.
Surprisingly the CCC party is now making the accident a political issue.
Mashonaland Central police spokesperson Inspector Milton Mundembe said he was yet to get the details of the accident.
