Ms
Mujuru's expulsion from the ruling party shocked many people AFP
|
Zimbabwe's sacked Vice-President Joice
Mujuru has unveiled a political manifesto in the capital, Harare, in the
clearest hint yet that she intends to run against President Robert Mugabe in
the 2018 elections. The
document, entitled "Build", outlines her vision for business, labour
and government in a country that is in deep economic crisis.
BBC
reports that Ms Mujuru has not yet launched a political party, but there is
intense speculation that she will eventually do this.
Once a
close comrade of Mr Mugabe who fought for Zimbabwe's independence from colonial
rule, she was expelled from the ruling Zanu-PF party in April.
Mr
Mugabe's wife Grace led the campaign against her, accusing her of plotting to
oust her husband.
She
denied the allegation.
Mr
Mugabe has ruled Zimbabwe since independence in 1980.
