Cabinet minister 'faces dismissal'

According to sources, Samuel Udenge's political enemies within Zanu-PF were using the current power shortages being experienced in the country to call for his ouster.

The State media has also been unusually forthright and critical about the power shortages and lack of resolve to deal with the crisis by the minister and his permanent secretary, Partson Mbiriri.

The call for his ouster is despite the fact that everyone knows that power cuts are not a new thing.

Two months ago Saviour Kasukuwere, was compelled to reverse a vote of no-confidence that had been passed against Udenge and after the Energy minister was booted out of the party's provincial executive.
