ED fires State Security minister Ncube

BY MIRIAM MANGWAYA/BLESSED MHLANGA
PRESIDENT Emmerson Mnangagwa on Monday fired State Security minister Owen “Mudha” Ncube from government with immediate effect over “inappropriate conduct”.

Ncube has all along been perceived as one of Mnangagwas’s allies as he hails from the Midlands province.

In a statement, Chief Secretary to the President and Cabinet Misheck Sibanda said Ncube was fired for conduct not commensurate with his mandate as a government minister.
