Legislators have piled pressure on President Robert Mugabe to fire Foreign Affairs minister Simbarashe Mumbengegwi, accusing him of globe-trotting, failing to provide an oversight role over his ministry and bunking Parliament.
During debate on a motion on the case of an estimated 200 Zimbabwean women stranded in Kuwait, opposition MPs Priscilla Misihairabwi-Mushonga (MDC Proportional Representation) and Paurina Mpariwa (Mufakose MP MDC-T) accused Mumbengegwi of failing to attend Parliament to listen to the report on legislature's delegation to Kuwait.
The motion was introduced in the National Assembly by the chairperson of the Parliamentary Portfolio Committee on Foreign Affairs, Kindness Paradza.
