'Nepotism destroying Zanu-PF'

War veterans leader Jabulani Sibanda says the ruling Zanu-PF party has gone off the rails owing to endemic nepotism and corruption.

Sibanda said his party was no longer respecting the egalitarian principles of the liberation struggle as evidenced by growing cronyism.

Citing the example of how the party allocated proportional representation parliamentary seats and claimed the seats were given mainly to those women whose husbands are in the top echelons of the party.

Sibanda said the revolutionary party has lost the revolutionary way because of nepotism and corruption.

He said in women representation, it is only wives of party bigwigs who have influential positions at the expense of genuine cadres.
