Grace at it again, Mujuru must resign today

First Lady Grace Mugabe resumed her nationwide campaign calling on Vice-President Joice Mujuru to resign today to save herself from further embarrassment. “The writing is on the wall clearly in bold print saying hatichakudai amai,” she was quoted by The Herald as saying. “Don’t force us. You showed us that you are not capable to lead full stop. We need people who work. The President wants lieutenants who help him to develop this nation. Crooks and thieves are not tolerated……If she wants respect she should tender her resignation today because there is more to come. I am only telling you the periphery. We give you honour for fighting in the war not for working for the country. “We chose her to represent our interest but she has failed. We have had enough of this stupidity. Ivo baba havasi kuzvinzwa here kuti munhu ngaaende?” Mujuru has challenged those calling for her resignation that she is loyal to the country and to President Robert Mugabe.  “To you my fellow citizens I say, that I, Joice Teurai Ropa Mujuru, am here to serve the people of Zimbabwe , and the party ZANU-PF, that I have always been a member of . No amount of malicious, hurtful and false statements about me, my late husband, my family, children , associates or business interests (real or imagined) can deter me from the mission at hand, that is to assist His Excellency President R . G Mugabe in driving the social and economic programmes of his Government to successful fruition.”
