Zanu-PF burns in primaries war

Zanu-PF is in turmoil over its forthcoming primary elections, with senior party officials now battling to calm down angry members who are fuming over the conduct of the party's provincial chairpersons who stand accused of favouring their cronies.

This comes as the politburo has postponed all deliberations on petitions and letters of complaints from members alleging corruption and outright fraud by some party bigwigs during submission of CVs to their provincial leadership.

Contacted for comment, Zanu-PF secretary for information and publicity, Simon Khaya Moyo, confirmed that the politburo was aware of the problems, but had parked them until all provinces had completed their processes.
