Embattled Vice President Emmerson Mnangagwa's Team Lacoste has stepping up its efforts to woo supporters of former Vice President Joice Mujuru.
Daily News reports that this part of a bid to outmanoeuvre Zanu PF's marauding Young Turks known as the Generation 40 (G40) - who are rabidly opposed to the Midlands godfather - the faction was working hard to augment its forces.
"We are engaged in a fierce war comrade, against an enemy (G40) that is ruthless, and that will do anything, including lying and selling their mothers, to destroy us and Ngwena (Mnangagwa). So, we have to fight back with everything we have," said a Daily News source.
Daily News maintains that Zanu PF has effectively split into two bitterly-opposed formations in the Midlands, the citadel of Mnangagwa's support.
Regional party officials confirmed to the newspaper that there were now two structures at most levels - belonging to the rival Mnangagwa and Generation 40 (G40) camps.
"It's war here. For every G40 structure, there is now a parallel Team Lacoste one, and vice-versa. Our worry is how this will be resolved going into 2018," one of the officials said.
