Mujuru ordered to leave office within 7 days

PERSONAL attacks on under-fire Vice-President Joice Mujuru continued unabated yesterday with Hurungwe East MP Sarah Mahoka saying the VP should leave office before end of next week.

"The women's league national executive must remove VP Mujuru from office next week without fail," she was quoted as saying by the private Press.

Mujuru has been under fire from some sections of the party over allegations of corruption and plotting to topple Mugabe, charges she has denied.

Grace Mugabe opened a Pandora's Box last month when she publicly made the allegations during her "meet the people" tours around the country.

The president's wife claimed that Mujuru was the "real weevil" plotting to destroy the ruling party from within.

"The real weevil is VP Mujuru not the interpretation that it was Jonathan Moyo (Information minister)," she said.

The fight to remove Mujuru from her position both in government and Zanu PF has claimed scalps of several party officials and eight provincial chairpersons linked to her camp.

The anti-Mujuru campaign has been extended to Cabinet ministers and politburo members believed to be sympathetic to her
