Shamu attacks unruly supporters

Zanu PF national commissar Webster Shamu, battling to contain fierce infighting in the former sole ruling partys structures, has castigated members fomenting divisions and perpetrating intra-party violence.

Shamus concerns were raised after public clashes between Zanu PF supporters over district co-ordinating committee elections in Manicaland and Masvingo provinces last week.

The clashes have threatened to tear apart the liberation war party, in power since independence in 1980.
