Former Vice- President Joice Mujuru has reportedly met opposition People's Democratic Party (PDP) leader Tendai Biti and MDC-T treasurer general Theresa Makone over the past two weeks, as she intensifies efforts to form a grand coalition of opposition parties to challenge President Robert Mugabe's stranglehold in power in the 2018 elections.

Sources say that Mujuru is now holding boardroom discussions with representatives of various political parties to find common ground.

On Tuesday last week, Mujuru met PDP leader Tendai Biti on issues to do with a possible coalition.

The sources also said that parties to the negotiations had agreed to keep the matter under wraps to avoid jeopardizing the discussions and giving Zanu-PF adequate ammunition to crush them.

PDP spokesperson Jacob Mafume however, denied reports Biti had met Mujuru.
