Ncube has to fire Mutambara to become DPM

Political analyst John Makumbe today said new Movement for Democratic Change leader Welshman Ncube has to fire his predecessor Arthur Mutambara if he wants to become the Deputy Prime Minister. Makumbe’s comments follow President Robert Mugabe’s statement that there are legal complications in removing Mutambara. “An option Welshman has is to dismiss Arthur Mutambara from the party. If he dismisses him or expels him from the party, Mutambara will not have any leg to stand on. He will have to step down as DPM and Mugabe will have to go to Ncube and ask that his party nominates a new DPM.”
