Mujuru eats into Zanu-PF strongholds

The Joice Mujuru-led Zimbabwe People First (ZimPF) has rattled Zanu-PF as it penetrates deep into the ruling party's strongholds, hardly a month after it was launched.

ZimPF today holds a public meeting at Sadza growth point in Chikomba District, an area perceived to be a Zanu-PF stronghold in Mashonaland East Province.

The Chikomba gathering that has since been cleared by the police comes after a well-attended public meeting in Marondera last week that left President Robert Mugabe's Zanu-PF in panic mode.

Mashonaland East is reportedly a Mujuru stronghold and judging by last week's attendance, the former Vice-President commands a huge following in the province.
