Zanu PF knives out for Wadyajena

SENIOR Zanu PF officials in the Midlands province are reportedly baying for Gokwe-Nembudziya legislator Justice Mayor Wadyajena’s blood and are seeking his expulsion from the ruling party for his alleged involvement in the US$5,8 million fraud and money-laundering cases.

NewsDay, however, understands that President Emmerson Mnangagwa is allegedly protecting his long-time ally, saying the party can only expel Wadyajena after the court has concluded the case.

Wadyajena and three Cotton Company of Zimbabwe officials, currently on $100 000 bail each, were dragged to court to answer to charges of fraud and money laundering involving over US$5 million.
