Grace, Mphoko, Kasukuwere, Jonathan Moyo, Chombo and Zhuwao expelled from ZANU-PF and banned for life

First Lady Grace Mugabe was today expelled from the Zimbabwe African National Union-Patriotic Front and banned for life together with her G40 cohorts Phelekezela Mphoko, Saviour Kasukuwere, Jonathan Moyo, Ignatius Chombo and Patrick Zhuwao.

Those also expelled but without a life ban are: Paul Chimedza, Mandi Chimene, Kudzanai Chipanga, Makhosini Hlongwane, Samuel Undenge and his wife Letina, Walter Mzembi, Innocent Hamandishe, Sarah Mahoka, Eunice Sandi-Moyo, Tongai Kasukuwere, Xavier Kasukuwere, Shadreck Mashayamombe and Anastacia Ndlovu.

The party dismissed President Robert Mugabe as party leader and gave him until noon tomorrow to step down as State president.

If he refuses to step down Mugabe could face the wrath of the people or impeachment by Parliament on Tuesday.
