Zanu-PF Politiburo in crunch indabas

Zanu-PF's Politburo and Central Committee will meet this week for crunch indabas.

In a statement yesterday, the ruling party's Secretary for Administration Dr Ignatius Chombo said the Politburo and Central Committee meetings would be on Wednesday and Thursday respectively.

"On Wednesday 5th April and Friday 7th April 2017, Zanu-PF will hold its 308th Ordinary Session of the Politburo and 105th Central Committee respectively. Both meetings will be held as usual at the Zanu-PF Headquarters and will start at 1000 hours. Members of both organs are urged to be on time to attend these meetings.

"Critical issues pertaining to the Party as well as national development will be discussed. Agendas will be availed on the day of the meeting. His Excellency, the President and First Secretary, RG Mugabe will chair both meetings," he said.

Among the issues likely to be discussed include the fate of Women's League Deputy Secretary Eunice Ntombizodwa Moyo and Sarah Mahoka, who were last week expelled pending a Politburo determination.

Zanu-PF Political Commissar Saviour Kasukuwere and party Mashonaland Central chair Dickson Mafios could also to be under the spotlight amid growing calls for them to be removed from their positions.
