Gutu Residents Demand Business Tycoon Tagwirei for MP—Will He Answer the Call?

GUTU – Residents of Gutu are actively rallying behind prominent businessman Kuda Tagwirei, urging him to contest in the upcoming parliamentary by-election.
They believe his extensive contributions to development make him a strong candidate to lead the constituency.
Sources within the community indicate that villagers have approached traditional leaders, urging them to formally convey their request through the necessary political and administrative channels.
They highlight Tagwirei’s involvement in various development projects, including his contributions to Arundel Hospital, funding football programs, and providing water and electricity to schools and clinics.
Many believe his leadership would accelerate progress in the area.
While Tagwirei has yet to respond to the calls, his reputation as a key player in business and infrastructure development continues to fuel conversations about his potential political future.
The campaign for his candidacy has gained traction, with villagers determined to have a leader who understands economic growth and development strategies.
His efforts in community projects such as the Bridging Gaps Foundation have further strengthened their push for his involvement.
According to Ignite Media Zimbabwe, discussions about Tagwirei’s possible entry into politics have spread beyond community circles and into broader political forums.
Reports indicate that Zanu PF’s Masvingo Province has expressed openness to his candidacy, signaling growing political interest in his potential involvement.
Some sources suggest that Harare Province has also shown support for Tagwirei, should he decide to enter public office.
His support for the construction of a Seventh-day Adventist Church in Mutoko has also caught public attention, highlighting his ongoing influence in community development.
Additionally, Tagwirei’s investment in Arundel Hospital, located at 92 Norfolk Road, Mount Pleasant, Harare, has been a focal point of his philanthropic work.
Reports indicate that Sakunda Holdings funded renovations and equipment upgrades for the hospital in 2020, particularly to support Zimbabwe’s COVID-19 response.
For now, villagers remain committed to their push, convinced that someone with a strong development background could bring tangible change to the constituency.
Whether Tagwirei will accept their request remains to be seen.
