Zanu PF wins Bulawayo council elections

PRESIDENT Emmerson Mnangagwa’s Zanu Pf has romped to victory in the recently held council by election in Cowdray Park Bulawayo.

The party’s candidate Kidwell Mujuru beat closest contender Nomagugu Mloyi of MDC Alliance by 670 votes after polling 1 899 votes.

The election had 18 candidates vying for the ward seat, with the Nelson Chamisa-led MDC fielding two candidates. However, ZANU-PF still got more votes than the two MDC-Chamisa candidates combined.

The councilor position for Bulawayo Ward 28 (Cowdray Park) fell vacant in December 2018 following the death of MDC Alliance councilor Hapson Nyasha Ncube.

Cowdray Park by-election results of the top 3 candidates:

Kidwell Mujuru (Zanu-PF) 1899
Nomagugu Mloyi (MDC Alliance) 1229
Collet Ndlovu (MDC-Alliance) 221
