The battle of wits between Zanu-PF's warring Generation 40 (G40) and Team Lacoste factions has resurfaced shortly after war veterans met President Robert Mugabe and asked him to crush the ambitious and youthful grouping (G40) believed to be fronted by First Lady Grace Mugabe.

This came as the Zimbabwe National Liberation War Veterans' Association (ZNLWVA) claimed the meeting was hijacked and they were gagged not to freely make their contributions before Mugabe.

ZNLWVA spokesperson Douglas Mahiya said that their executive would soon demand a fresh meeting with War Veterans minister Tshinga Dube to assess what had happened during the indaba with Mugabe, which he said was hijacked by the technical team  composed mainly of serving military members.
