Zimbabwe's security services will not stand by while rogue elements belittle their Commander-in-Chief, warning that dissent from quarters that should know better will not be tolerated.
Zimbabwe Defence Forces Commander General Constantino Chiwenga said many of the people making political noises today were either utterly misguided, had a history of treachery or were Johnnies-come-lately to the struggle.
This follows a stream of commentary in the private media from one war veterans grouping which is trying to create the impression that the majority of liberation fighters - who are a Reserve Force - have lost faith in their Commander-in-Chief.
The general's sentiments also come on the back of claims by some politicians within Zanu-PF that they are the President's number one backers, yet they had a well-documented history of treachery.
Gen Chiwenga said people like Zimbabwe National Liberation War Veterans Association (ZNLWVA) spokesperson Douglas Mahiya must appreciate that they were fronting an NGO and not the majority of ex-combatants.
