Zimbabwe PM rejects Zuma fresh poll calls

Over the past few months, the inclusive government has been rocked by disturbances on white owned commercial farms and threats to seize foreign owned companies by supporters of President Mugabe.

In December, Swiss based international food giant, Nestle temporarily suspended its operations in Zimbabwe after supporters of the ageing leader tried to force it to buy milk from his estate.

Commenting on the latest assault on white farmers Mr Tsvangirai said: “Well in this GPA we have always budgeted for resistance elements that will do something that is not within the core values of the inclusive Government and this is one of the examples.

“It must be condemned.”

Last year, Mr Tsvangirai’s Movement for Democratic Change temporarily pulled out of the unity government accusing Zanu PF of disrespecting their power sharing agreement but returned after the intervention of SADC.
