to Gwanzura stadium in Highfields high density suburb to the planned
Zimbabwe National Liberation War Veterans Association (ZNLWVA) is
indaba to chart a way forward for the country and to urge President
Robert Mugabe to step-down.

War veterans, widely regarded as close allies of sacked Vice-President
Emmerson Mnangagwa, said nothing would stop them from meeting.

Already they have reacted angrily to Mnangagwa’s sacking and in

go ahead as planned.
