Harare, Zimbabwe – Learnmore Musunda, who served as the Chief Commercial Officer (CCO) of NetOne, a state-owned telecommunications company, has been reportedly dismissed from his position.
This significant development, reported on February 9, 2026, stems from a series of serious allegations that have cast a shadow over his tenure at the organization.
Musunda’s dismissal is directly linked to grave accusations of misconduct. These include allegations of large-scale corruption, abuse of office, and multiple complaints of sexual harassment from staff members.
Further reports from October 2025 also highlighted concerns regarding irregular procurement activities and an alarming accusation that Musunda allegedly brought a firearm onto company premises to intimidate staff.
The context surrounding Musunda’s exit is complex, intertwined with a broader “boardroom power struggle” within NetOne. This internal strife became publicly apparent in October 2025 when NetOne CEO Raphael Mushanawani was arrested on fraud allegations amounting to US$1.2 million.
Musunda, at the time, denied these claims.
The decision for his dismissal was reportedly made following internal investigations and disciplinary procedures, conducted in strict accordance with NetOne’s internal governance and disciplinary policies.
As the situation continues to develop, further details are anticipated.
