THE opposition Citizens Coalition for Change has nominated five candidates to fill party list vacancies at the City of Bulawayo as well as Epworth Local Board.
Four of the candidates will fill in vacancies in Bulawayo while one will fill in the Epworth vacancy. This comes after the CCC recalled Cronje Sarah, Mhizha Tabeth, Sibanda Dorcas, Tshongwe Zibusiso and Anna Sande.
According to a notice by the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission’s Chief Elections Officer Mr Utloile Silaigwana, the CCC has filed five nominees.
