Petition for Urgent Reform: Reclaiming ZIMURA for Creators
To the Board of Directors of the Zimbabwe Music Rights Association (ZIMURA):
We, the undersigned members, are formally requisitioning an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) under Section 168 of the Companies and Other Business Entities Act. The Association is currently facing a constitutional and moral collapse. Urgent action is required to protect the livelihoods of Zimbabwean creators and remove individuals who have prioritized their own pockets over the survival of the industry.
Why This Matters
This petition aims to stop the siphoning of artist funds and end the "lawfare" and manufactured legal persecution used to silence those seeking accountability.
What You Are Voting For
By signing this petition, you support the passing of the following resolutions:
1. Leadership Accountability & Removals
* Removal of Alexio Gwenzi: For gross misconduct and conflict of interest regarding property sales.
* Removal of Complicit Board Members: To remove those who have failed to uphold their fiduciary duties to the membership.
* Termination of Executive Director: To formally remove the General Manager following her 2025 fraud conviction and the High Court ruling (HH 438-25).
* Nullification of Co-options: To cancel the appointments of the Legal Advisor and Treasurer due to procedural flaws and actions against the interests of creators.
2. Asset Protection, Audits & Royalty Reform
* Reversal of Property Sale: To nullify and reverse the sale of the Association’s building and office assets.
* Investigation into Alexio Gwenzi: To conduct a formal inquiry into his role and conduct regarding property transactions.
* Mandate to Reconstitute Royalty Structure: To authorize the board to completely overhaul and reconstitute the royalty structure to ensure fair, transparent, and timely payments to all creators.
* Forensic & Lifestyle Audits: To commission an independent forensic audit of international royalties and distribution methods, alongside lifestyle audits of all ZIMURA employees.
3. Restoration of Justice & Structural Reform
* Restore Legitimate Representation: To affirm and restore the election of the only legitimate board representatives of the membership who have fought for justice.
* End Legal Persecution: To immediately cease and withdraw all manufactured legal persecution and disciplinary proceedings against reform-minded board members.
* Reverse Expulsions: To reverse the illegal expulsion of members who have stood up for the Association’s integrity.
* Elect Pro-People Board Members: To elect new board members from the membership to replace those removed, ensuring representation that prioritizes justice and creator rights.
* Constitutional Safeguards: To create a dedicated committee to amend the ZIMURA constitution, specifically to protect it from future abuse and power grabs.

This Zimura must go they are doing a very bad job.for me a l have never received my money for the album l did with my crew who were called Tripple pace we did a track called Ndiye mwari which received a lot of air play it was also used as sound track for filmes and drummers but ne
Enough is enough with Gwenzi ,Makombe and Polisile and First Farai Batani ,we need change
We need clarity on how this organisation is doing business from what we saw on Dj ollahs podcast it tells a lot
We want a full investigation into the alleged unconstitutional practices and an extraordinary meeting for meeting the board on their mixed responses on royalty distribution,there is need for revising the constitution of Zimura
No to corrupt leadership. No to illegitimate office appointments. No to embezzlement. Artists deserve a fair share of their wit and sweat. Artists deserve a colorful life.
