ZANU-PF special congress set for 12-17 December

Whispers say this tactic was used at Victoria Falls in 2015 scuttling plans to elevate Grace Mugabe then.

War veterans, who have been calling the shots since 2000 but now seem to have been sidelined, are expected to meet this week and the outcome of their meeting could sway the way the congress goes though their leaders were expelled from the party.

The war veterans led by Christopher Mutsvangwa insist that the party has been hijacked by G40 and they will not allow the party to be run by people without liberation credentials.

The party constitution does not allow disputes with the party to be handled by the courts. Hey should be resolved within the party.
