War vets savage Grace Mugabe, Mphoko

War Veterans minister Christopher Mutsvangwa and members of his "suspended" Zimbabwe National Liberation War Veterans' Association (ZNLWVA) executive yesterday blasted First Lady Grace Mugabe, Vice-President Phelekezela Mphoko and Zanu-PF national commissar Saviour Kasukuwere for allegedly abusing State resources by holding whirlwind countrywide tours to prop up their G40 faction.

Addressing journalists in the capital, Mutsvangwa's group threatened to "go to war" to stop the G40 from controlling party issues.

Mutsvangwa was speaking at an emotionally charged emergency ZNLWVA national executive meeting where members openly chanted "Pasi neG40!" (Down with G40!).
