Mainstream-led Gutu Rural District Council has blocked the appointment of a new Chief Executive Officer (CEO) by Local Government Minister Ignatious Chombo.
The Gutu RDC councillors last week on Monday held a meeting with the district administrator Roy Hove together with other stakeholders and blocked Chombo`s appointee Fredrick Tozvireva from taking over as the council`s new CEO ahead of their preffered choice Alexander Mutombwa.
The officials blocked him from entering the council premises arguing that Mutombwa should rightfullyn take over as the CEO because he had outshone the other job interviewees who had been shortlisted for the job accusing Chombo of seeking to employ a ZANU-PF-aligned official.
The RDC chairman said Mutombwa scored 80 percent ,followed by Nehemiah Dewure whoose marks stood at 71,5 percent and Tozvireva was in a third position with 68 precent and the interviewee panel list had recommended the top two people but were shocked to see the ministry giving the job to a person who was not recommended.
Mutombwa is also said to have higher educational qualifications than the other two candidates for the job.He holdsd a Masters Degree in Strategic Management while Tozvireva is said to have only a first degree.
