ZPRA war vets snub Mnangagwa

ZIMBABWE People’s Revolutionary Army Veterans Association’s leadership yesterday boycotted a national war veterans meeting with President Emmerson Mnangagwa in Harare, complaining that they were not formally invited.

The PF Zapu former military wing yesterday said they got an informal invitation with the Head of State for the event which was slated for yesterday in Harare and were not amused, as they had formally sent their request to meet Mnangagwa over a cocktail of concerns a few months ago.

ZPRA Veterans Association early this year compiled grievances meant to be tabled before Mnangagwa, among them their welfare, empowerment and vetting of their colleagues.
