President Robert Mugabe called on disgruntled war veterans to return to the Zimbabwe African National Union-Patriotic Front fold in a move that seemed to be targetted at former politburo member Dumiso Dabengwa who broke away from the party to revive the Zimbabwe African People’s Union. Speaking at the unveiling of the late Vice-President Joshua Nkomo’s statue in Bulawayo, Mugabe said:”Yesterday you were under his (Nkomo’s) command, yesterday he was telling you to go to that area, that area and you were saying yes sir. Now that he is gone do you think now that he is in the grave he can be disobeyed. To the war veterans I say you fought one war whether under ZANLA or ZIPRA, get back together. These are the ones, who really make me cry because they were under us, under our command, they should be united. You settle your contradictions through discussions and hear each other; so I make that appeal, come back I don’t say that to anaTsvangirai, they can go hang those ones.”
