Jane Mlambo| Zimbabwe African Peoples Union (ZAPU) has stocked pressure on the underfire South African government to deport Vice President Constantino Chiwenga currently receiving treatment in South Africa saying he should come back home and use the same facility his party neglected and allowed to run down since 1980.

Zapu spokesperson Iphithule Maphosa said if local health facilities are good for ordinary people, they must also be used by top government officials.

“If the facilities in Zimbabwe are good for the ordinary person, they surely are best for the government officials. South Africa must stop the Zanu PF and government looters if at all lives are important. Giving comfort to Chiwenga translates to condoning the mismanagement and rights violations currently taking place in Zimbabwe,” Maphosa said.

“The same Chiwenga once issued a blanket dismissal to striking health workers, further jeopardising an already ailing service for the poor ordinary Zimbabweans.”
