FORMER Deputy Speaker of the Senate and Zanu-PF Central Committee member Naison Khutshwekhaya Ndlovu has confirmed that he is gravely ill.
The ill-health has kept him away from the public eye and has not been attending any Zanu-PF meetings including the Annual Peoples Conference in Victoria Falls.
"I started getting ill just after the New Year's holiday (in January 2015) and I have not been well since then but I am ill just like everyone else gets ill, and I am praying that as we enter the new year I will get better," he said.
However, although he has been behind the scenes on the political front due to illness, he warned Zanu PF to guard against relaxing in Bulawayo.
Last year, Zanu PF clinched six parliamentary seats in the city.
"Zanu-PF needs to strategise and maintain power since the party has made big strides so far as they have won the by-elections. You do not relax in times like these but have to ensure that the enemy does not get a chance to penetrate. Elections are around the corner so we have to be focused on winning," said Ndlovu.
