National Assembly By-elections Set For September 7, 2019

President Emmerson Mnangagwa has proclaimed the dates for National Assembly by-elections in Mangwe, Matabeleland South and Glen View South in Harare.

The Mangwe constituency fell vacant following the death of Obedingwa Mguni (ZANU PF), while Glen View South constituency fell vacant following the death of Vimbai Tasvangirayi Java (MDC Alliance).
