“It is the feeling of some members that the Extraordinary session of the Politiburo should take a decision to have the Vice President be redeployed to a much lesser role that allows the country to move forward and the party to be able to discharge its duties with a full functioning presidium. So among other issues, it is highly likely that the Politiburo will discuss the matter regarding the sick leave of Chiwenga.”
There has been reports that Minister Oppah Muchinguri, General Sibusiso Moyo are among those angling to replace the ailing General.
The ZANU PF Politiburo is expected to start at 2PM on Thursday at ZANU PF headquarters.
