Book NowLong-serving Chief Law Officer Chris Mutangadura, whose career has been built on decades of courtroom experience and institutional memory, has been elevated to the post of Deputy Prosecutor General. Joining him at that level is Bulawayo-based Chief Public Prosecutor Tariro Rosa Takuva, a respected figure in legal circles who has been credited with strengthening prosecutorial standards in the country’s second-largest city.
The appointments are not confined to the courtroom. Dingidhlela Zisengwe, formerly head of uniformed service and formations with the Public Service Commission, has been named board secretary of the NPAZ, effectively taking on the role of accounting officer. His administrative and governance background is expected to sharpen the Authority’s operational efficiency and fiscal discipline.
In announcing the changes, the Authority described the appointments as a milestone in reinforcing leadership capacity, citing the appointees’ wealth of experience, professional integrity, and commitment to the rule of law. It expressed confidence that the trio will not only bring stability to the organisation but also inject new energy into the delivery of justice.
The moves come at a time when the NPAZ continues to position itself as a bulwark of the justice system, tasked with prosecuting cases impartially and upholding public confidence in the rule of law. For many observers, the promotions reflect an effort to blend institutional continuity with renewed governance strength, anchoring the Authority’s mandate in both legal rigour and administrative accountability.
As the Authority extended its congratulations, it also set the bar high: the expectation that these appointments will translate into stronger service delivery, greater efficiency, and deeper trust in one of the country’s most critical institutions.
