Allies of ousted Zimbabwe vice president Mujuru vow to fight back

Ousted Former Vice President of Zimbabwe, Joice Mujuru has vowed to launch a legal battle to regain control of the ZANU-PF party.

The disaffected party cadre called the party's December congress which elected new leaders illegal, saying there is neither constitutional nor moral authority for it to form structures that can lead both party and government.

Former Party Secretary for Administration, Didymus Mutasa, said they would use legal channels to reclaim the leadership of the party from the jaws of political vultures for all the loyal members of Zanu-PF who are determined to restore the image of the party.

Scores of party officials including Mutasa, Party Spokesperson, Rugare Gumbo, Party Commissar, Webster Shamu and war veteran’s leader, Jabulani Sibanda were fired last year after being accused of siding with former Vice President, Mrs Mujuru.

President Mugabe also sacked nine cabinet ministers and six deputy ministers aligned to Mrs Mujuru.
