Zanu-PF lines up 3 crunch meetings

Zanu-PF is set to hold high-level meetings this week, starting with a Politburo meeting today, Central Committee meeting on Friday and the National Consultative Assembly on Saturday.

President Mugabe will chair all the meetings that come against the backdrop of the ongoing wanton dismissal of workers by companies following a recent Supreme Court ruling permitting employers to fire workers on three months' notice.

Worker's, long ditched by the politicised labour movement, have been calling on the revolutionary party for salvation, with the revolutionary party's First Secretary and President Mugabe describing the law as an ass.

Zanu-PF Secretary for Administration Ignatius Chombo revealed the itinerary in an invite to all members of the three arms of the ruling party yesterday.
