THE Supreme Court has overturned a ruling by Bulawayo High Court judge, Thompson Mabhikwa declaring the 2018 election of former Bulawayo deputy mayor and Ward Three councillor Tinashe Kambarami null and void.
The Supreme Court’s ruling is however just academic as Kambarami has already been recalled from Bulawayo City Council by the Douglas Mwonzora led MDC-T.
In 2019, Justice Mabhikwa declared the election of Kambarami illegal after 1892 Mthwakazi Restoration Movement Trust and Nomalanga Dabengwa had approached the High Court challenging his election.
In his ruling, Justice Mabikwa ruled that Kambarami had violated Section 119 (2) (e) of the Electoral Act (Chapter 213) following his conviction for theft at the Bulawayo magistrates court under criminal record Book (CRB) number 1981/18 on June 2018.
