'Grace Mugabe now ruling Zimbabwe'

Zanu-PF succession politics issues spilled into Parliament yesterday with Warren Park MP Elias Mudzuri (MDC-T) raising the issue of First Lady Grace Mugabe's recent utterances at a rally in Chiweshe, saying it now appears she was ruling the country.

Mudzuri raised the issue as a point of order, with the Speaker of the National Assembly Jacob Mudenda during the question-and-answer session.

Mudenda quashed discussion of the issue, saying Parliament had no business debating political statements made at rallies.
