		Zvobgo, the brusque and sometimes cryptic communicator who has been called many things by political phraseologists has, during his illustrious political career, had his fair share of problems with some of his colleagues in Zanu PF who are increasingly wary of what they consider his fading commitment to the cause of the ruling party.
		Retired Chief Air Marshal Josiah Tungamirai strongly warned that it would be dangerous to expel the Masvingo South legislator from the ruling party as the ripple effect could spell doom for Zanu PF in that province.
		The army boss is tipped to take over from Muzenda as the godfather of Masvingo province, but is likely to meet stiff resistance from Tungamirai, a founder member of Zanu PF who belonged to the ruling party’s liberation war council Dare re Chimurenga.
