Sithole, who defected from Zanu PF and had a stint with Simba Makoni’s Mavambo/Dawn/Khusile project before joining Zapu, said he was ready to rejoin the ruling party.
Sithole told a Press conference in Masvingo on Saturday that he had quit Zapu after realising that he was being “used by people with ulterior motives”.
“I quit Zapu as of July 15. I felt I was being used to settle some personal scores. I am ready to go back to Zanu PF. If they will not take me back, then I will pursue other business. I will not return to Zapu,” he said.
Sithole accused Dabengwa of running the party by himself.
“He did not implement things agreed in meetings, but did what he wanted. I did not understand him at all. No one in Zapu can stand up to him. Members were fired or suspended for reasons we did not understand.
“Dabengwa has no direction. He is a dictator. Zapu has failed.

“It is of no help to be in the opposition for the sake of opposing without achieving anything. What is the reason of Zapu as a political party?”
He urged the former Zipra intelligence supremo to apologise to President Robert Mugabe and return to Zanu PF. Dabengwa could not be reached for comment over the allegations yesterday.
