He is also a member of the Harare City Council. In the March 2008 election, the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) won 45 of the 46 local council seats in Harare. Chiroto, who is a member of the MDC was elected as Mayor of Harare by the councillors on June 15. Ignatius Chombo, the Minister of Local Government, had not sworn in the new local administrations, and because the elected Harare councillors were not allowed to meet at Harare's Town House, they met elsewhere to elect Chiroto. On the night of June 16, Chiroto's house in the suburb of Hatcliffe was attacked and destroyed by ZANU-PF supporters; Chiroto believed that petrol bombs were used. Chiroto's wife, Abigail, and his four-year-old son were taken away by the attackers, although his son was delivered to a police station on June 16.[1] Chiroto himself was not present when the attack occurred.[1][2] His wife was later found murdered[2] on June 18, 2008 at a farm in outlying Borrowdale.{{Citation needed|date=June 2008}} Chiroto went into hiding following this incident.[2] References1. ^1 Peta Thornycroft, "Harare mayor's family abducted", Daily News, South Africa (IOL), June 18, 2008, page 3. {{DEFAULTSORT:Chiroto, Emmanuel}}{{Zimbabwe-mayor-stub}}2. ^1 2 Tererai Karimakwenda, "Zimbabwe: Wife of Harare Mayor Buried, Without Family", SW Radio Africa (allAfrica.com), June 25, 2008. 4 : Zimbabwean politicians|Mayors of Harare|Living people|Year of birth missing (living people) |
