Kasipo was suspended from Kwekwe City Council by Local Government Minister July Moyo, together with two other councillors, Melody Chingarande and Zanu-PF’s Makomborero Mlambo.
The three were suspended after pushing to have the recently adopted Kwekwe City Council budget withdrawn because it was too much for pressed residents.
Kasipo confirmed the development in an interview.“Yes, it’s true that I was nominated by several stakeholders to represent the party in Kwekwe Central. The party has processes which it needs to conclude before one becomes a candidate, “she said.
During her term of office, Kasipo was touted to be passionate about addressing residents’ concerns.
Incumbent Member of Parliament Judith Tobaiwa also received a nomination to represent the constituency.Makombe was recalled in 2022 by MDC-T leader Douglas Mwonzora for being aligned with the CCC leader Nelson Chamisa.
Makombe was voted back to represent Ward 1 during the March 26, 2022, by-elections.
