Mnangagwa's Zanu-PF stress mounts

A petition to oust VP Mnangagwa from both his party and government positions has taken off. Sources claim that signatures for the petition began to be collected on Saturday.

One of the sources, who is also a central committee member also noted that there had been an overwhelming response to the petition.

The petition is said to be well on track to get more than the 600,000 originally planned countrywide, at an average of 60,000 signatures per province.

But the secretary-general of the pro-Mnangagwa Zimbabwe National Liberation War Veterans Associations  (ZNLWA), Victor Matemanda said the struggle fighters would oppose the petition.
