THE Zanu-PF Politburo meets today and is expected to discuss a number of issues as the ruling party prepares for general elections set for July.

In a statement yesterday, Zanu-PF Secretary for Information and Publicity Cde Simon Khaya Moyo confirmed the meeting.

“The Zanu-PF Secretary of Administration Cde Dr Obert Mpofu is advising all Politburo members that there shall be an Ordinary Session on Wednesday 11th April, 2018 at the party headquarters in Harare, commencing 1000hrs,” he said.
