Victor Matemadanda was yesterday removed from the ZANU PF political commissar post during the ruling party’s Politburo meeting held at its headquarters in Harare.

The Children of Zimbabwe War Veterans Association (COZWVA) report that Matemadanda has been redeployed to be the new Zimbabwe ambassador to Mozambique.

COZWVA said: “This automatically means he is No longer the NPC and deputy minister”.

This comes after Matemadanda said MDC Alliance led by Nelson Chamisa is melting like a candle and ZANU PF is not yet done. A number of MDC top officials have been defecting to the ruling party ZANU PF.

The demotion means Matemadanda will no longer be involved or participate in the politburo, Zanu PF’s highest decision-making body.
