Beitbridge West was represented by
Metrine Mudau of
ZANU–PF between 2008 and 2018. In the
2018 election,
Ruth Mavhungu Maboyi of ZANU–PF was elected to the seat.
Morgan Ncube was elected MP for Beitbridge West in the
August 2023 general election by 96 votes, becoming the first opposition candidate to win a parliamentary seat in Beitbridge since
2000. On 3 October 2023,
Sengezo Tshabangu, who claimed to be the interim Secretary-General of the CCC, wrote a letter to National Assembly Speaker
Jacob Mudenda, in which he stated that Ncube and a group of CCC MPs had been expelled from the party. Mudenda recognized Tshabangu's letter and wrote to the
Zimbabwe Electoral Commission that Ncube and other CCC MPs had lost their parliamentary membership, despite party leader
Nelson Chamisa asking Mudenda to disregard the letter. Ncube and the other expelled CCC MPs subsequently all filed to stand as CCC candidates in their constituencies for the upcoming by-elections. On 7 December 2023, two days before the scheduled by-elections, the Harare High Court barred Ncube and the other expelled CCC MPs from contesting the by-elections. In the
by-election held on 9 December 2023,
Thusani Ndou of ZANU–PF was elected to represent the constituency with 88.8% of the vote. == Members ==
