Zanu PF youth league leaders are doubting whether they will get one million youth for the march today.
This comes amid fears of disease out breaks in the capital.
Harare is facing water shortages and has inadequate public ablution facilities.
Zanu PF deputy secretary for youth affairs, Kudzai Chipanga yesterday said "It's not possible for us to predict how many people will come, but we gave a target of 100 000 per province. I am not in the provinces, so I may not know."
He said since the million-man march was a one-day event, participants would not stay long in the capital, relieving pressure on the organisers.
Police spokesperson, Senior Assistant Commissioner Charity Charamba told NewsDay that they are in deep trouble as they only have 4000 police officers in Harare.
"Police are prepared for those one million people. We have made arrangements for that," she said.
