By Own Correspondent| President Emmerson Mnangagwa continues to misfire and showing little understanding of the magnitude of the coronavirus problem as he has gathered his party politburo members for a meeting at the Zanu PF headquarters.

Mnangagwa this week reviewed downwards to a maximum of 50, the number of people allowed to gather as part of measures to combat the coronavirus that has so far claimed one life in Harare.

He also banned beerhalls, pubs, gymnasium and many other meeting places but surprisingly the politiburo is meeting today.

Last week soon after issuing a ban on public gatherings, Mnangagwa held a rally in Manicaland which was attended by thousands of party supporters.

He further flew out of the country to attend the inauguration of Namibian President, a move viewed by many as showing his lack of seriousness in dealing with the pandemic before the world.
