Disaffected war veterans who served divorce papers on President Robert Mugabe last month have now gone a step further announcing yesterday that they would no longer support Zanu-PF only going forward, but would allow their members to embrace political parties of their choice.
The stunning development that will once again rock the already reeling ruling party to its foundation comes after the restless former freedom fighters recently embraced radical pressure group #Tajamuka /#Sejikile, which has been leading protests against Mugabe and Zanu-PF's misrule of the past 36 years.
The seismic announcement also comes at a time when that warring Zanu-PF's bigwigs are in serious panic mode over plans by opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai to enter 2018 electoral pact with former Vice President Joyce Mujuru and her Zimbabwe people first outfit.
ZNLWVA's national executive is plotting its next move following a crackdown on its hierarchy after the release of a damning communiqué last month that labelled President Robert Mugabe a dictator and urged him to step down.
With the agenda of its next meeting to be held anytime from now was not yet clear, ZNLWVA sources said they were planning to reject moves to rail road them into an early elective congress aimed at removing the Christopher Mutsvangwa led executive.
Mutsvangwa declined to discuss the matter referring everything to the ZNLWVA spokesperson Douglas Mahiya.
