Who's Injoh Prodencia, CPDM Parliamentary Candidate for Mbengwi?

As the countdown to the March 22nd 2020 parliamentary elections rerun in Momo division narrows, Mbengwi Online has been trailing the two aspirants for the Momo East constituency, Mbengwi. They are Edna Mbah (the incumbent) of the SDF  and Injoh Prodencia (the challenger) of the CPDM. Both candidates have been spotted in Mbengwi doing underground campaigns via mouth to ear, contrary to the past where Mbengwi used to be a strong political battleground. 

Contrary to the February 9th twin elections during which no campaign materials were spotted anywhere in the municipality, this time around campaign posters of the CPDM's parliamentary candidate have been seen pasted on walls and electric poles around Mile 18. On the posters carrying a picture of the candidate is written "For the 2020 March 22 Legislative Election,  Vote CPDM for Peace, Stability, Development".
