War veterans who are camped in Harare's CBD have vowed to stay put until all their grievances are addressed.

The war veterans have been in the CBD since Thursday last week when police fired teargas and used water cannons to disperse them after planning a march to Zanu-PF's headquarters.

Zimbabwe National Liberation War Veterans Association (ZNLWA) spokesperson Douglas Mahiya has however asked the veterans to disperse.

Nonetheless, the veterans have ignored his plea and want Defence minister Sydney Sekeramayi to address them.

They also want to receive status updates concerning money for fees, which they say should have been received in January.
