ZANU PF’s Legal Secretary Patrick Chinamasa confirmed that prominent businessman Kudakwashe Tagwirei has officially been admitted into the party’s influential Central Committee, declaring the move final and irreversible. The announcement comes amid heightened intra-party tensions, with factions reportedly divided over Tagwirei’s suitability for the role.

Tagwirei’s appointment had previously stalled due to resistance from some party members, concerned about his controversial reputation and growing influence. Despite internal hesitations, his inclusion signals a consolidation of political alliances within the party’s top hierarchy, particularly as power dynamics shift ahead of future leadership contests.

Notably, Chinamasa’s statement contradicts comments made earlier by ZANU PF spokesperson Christopher Mutsvangwa, who dismissed Tagwirei’s prospects, citing alleged improprieties. The contrasting positions reflect deepening factionalism within the ruling party, raising questions about transparency and internal cohesion.
