The provision of recalling legislators from Parliament, which has been widely used in recent months to decimate the opposition MDC Alliance should never have found its way in the 2013 Constitution, Lovemore Madhuku has said.
Madhuku, a top law expert and president of the National Constitutional Assembly (NCA) if Zimbabweans had been given an opportunity in 2013, the thorny clause would not have found its way in the current Constitution.
He said the controversial law was introduced by the now late former President Robert Mugabe to fire also now Edgar Tekere in 1989.

THE Zimbabwe Electoral Support Network (ZESN) has called on government to lift the ban on the holding of by-elections and to abandon alleged biases against rivals during the enforcement of the national lockdown.
Government has since been relaxing lockdown regulations with a recent stance allowing businesses to resume operations.
However, by-elections and electoral processes such as voter registration remain suspended.
This is despite political parties conducting activities in some constituencies, at times, in violation of Covid-19 regulations.
The poll watchdog said in a report focussing on government’s implementation of the lockdown that electoral processes could still go ahead during the current lockdown period.
