Deputy Minister Barbra Rwodzi’s husband, Christopher, died in a car accident while travelling from Gutu to Harare on Thursday night.
Having been advised not to stand as a candidate in the Zanu PF primaries for Gutu West, the former ZNA officer had since decided to stand as an independent candidate. The vehicle he was travelling in reportedly fell off a bridge.
Details of what caused the accident were not immediately available, but he is said to have died at the scene.
Although running as an independent candidate his vehicle was emblazoned with a picture of Zanu PF leader Emmerson Mnangagwa. A sticker on the vehicle urged voters to “Vote Christopher Mutonhori Rwodzi – Independent Candidate 4ED.”
Rwodzi was prevented from running in the primaries, allegedly over pending disciplinary issues.
