Below is an update on the Politburo meeting which is hearing statements against Vice President Joice Mujuru for the case in which she is being accused of allegedly sponsoring opposition parties and engaging in corrupt business activities.
The meeting which was meant to have been held today Wednesday was postponed again to Thursday (tommorrrow). Reasons for the postponement were not given.
“What will happen tommorrow is that Women’s League Secretary Oppah Muchinguri is going to open her report and present it to the politburo. In that report will be the allegations against Mai Mujuru which will then be debated,” a source said. (Also read Politburo Stands By Mujuru, Grace Mugabe Rubbished)
Grace Allegations:
In Grace’s unrestrained attacks on Mujuru, she said the vice-president should have waited her turn, instead of trying to wrest power from her husband whom she says she is defending.
“Mnangagwa — that man I respect him,” she said.
“In 2004, he agreed to step down to allow Mujuru to take over when he had been voted by eight provinces.
“Likewise, like Mnangagwa, Mujuru should just do the honourable thing and resign.”
Mnangagwa is allegedly leading a faction fighting the Mujuru camp to succeed Mugabe. Both deny leading factions, insisting they support the president.
