Mujuru circus rages on

More confusion beset ZimPF yesterday, as party structures were divided over leader, Joice Mujuru’s decision to expel seven senior party officials on allegations they were Zanu PF agents.

The opposition party’s youths in Bulawayo rallied behind Mujuru, saying the expulsions, which were announced on Wednesday, were long overdue, although the expelled party founders made a counter move and fired the former Vice-President labelling her a dictator.

ZimPF Masvingo provincial spokesperson, Jefferson Chitando, accused the ousted members — Didymus Mutasa, Rugare Gumbo, Cloudious Makova, Kudakwashe Bhasikiti, Margaret Dongo, Luckson Kandemiri and Munacho Mutezo — of frustrating Mujuru’s efforts to form a grand coalition with other opposition parties.
