Zimbabwe's representative to Canberra, Australia, Ms Jacqueline Zwambila is expected to be recalled from diplomatic mission the 31st of December, 2013.
News filtering in from Zimbabwe's diplomatic missions abroad say the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has written to three of the MDC-T ambassadors who were posted during the tenure of the inclusive government instructing them to return home by the 31st of December this year.
The sources say Ms Zwambila who is Zimbabwe's ambassador to Australia, Zimbabwe's ambassador to Germany Mr Hebson Makuvise and Harare's representative to Abuja Mr Mabhedi Ngulane have been recalled and are expected back home end of the year.
The same sources, however, revealed that MDC-T ambassador to Khartoum, Sudan, Hilda Mafudze will not be recalled as well as Trudy Stevenson who was seconded by the MDC to Dakar, Senegal.
The development follows the expiry of the inclusive government which lapsed with the victory of Zanu PF in the July 31 elections.
Ms Zwambila made news headlines two years ago.
She also made more headlines when she attended an Australian national day where racist colonialists under the guise of celebrating the Australian national day were reminiscing life in Rhodesia.
Ms Zwambila was also under the spotlight when she was said to have brought in a male employee from Zimbabwe under the guise of being her butler, before she allegedly later ill-treated him after they fell out.
Although the ambassadors' terms of duty expire in March, the President who appoints them may at any time recall or extend their terms.
Under the terms of the formation of the inclusive government, MDC-T was allocated four ambassadorial postings while the MDC had one.
