A fresh confrontation is looming in Zimbabwe's shaky power sharing
government after President Robert Mugabe reportedly ordered all ministers to
stop reporting to Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai but to the two Zanu PF
Vice-Presidents in a bid to demote the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC)
leader.
Highly placed government sources have told Radio VOP that the Mugabe issued
the directive through a memo written and signed by the country's chief
secretary to the president and cabinet Misheck Sibanda last week.
The controversial directive by Mugabe, which goes against the Global
Political Agreement (GPA) which gave power to Tsvangirai, is likely to
escalate tensions in the transitional government following last week's
collapse of talks between Zanu PF and the two MDC formations.
