G40, Mnangagwa allies face off again

The succession war raging in Vice President Emmerson Mnangagwa's Midlands heartland, which has seen some of his most vocal supporters being hauled before a provisional disciplinary hearing for allegedly harassing three ministers and fanning Zanu-PF's rampant factionalism, is getting hotter.

Well-placed sources told the Daily News yesterday that the latest point of conflict in the troubled province involved attempts by the factions locked in the mortal combat to influence the outcome of the hearings against the allies of the embattled VP who stand accused of intimidating the ministers who are to be opposed to the Midlands Godfather's mooted presidential ambitions.
