Dumiso Dabegwa, the Zapu president, is in the United Kingdom, where he is engaging stakeholders in Europe to mobilise resources for his party.
Dabengwa is expected to address Zapu supporters there in an effort to stem factionalism that has riddled the European branch of Zapu.
Artwell Ndlovu, the party’s secretary for information, publicity and marketing in Europe, told NewsDay his party’s president was expected to address a meeting together with secretary- general Ralph Mguni.
“The president and the secretary- general will be addressing several meetings in the UK and supporters and all those interested in the work of Zapu should attend the meetings,” he said.
The Zapu Europe province has been rocked by infighting with analysts predicting collapse unless the leadership intervened
Foreign support for political parties is outlawed in Zimbabwe, but it is not clear if it is allowed to mobilise resources from Zimbabweans in the Diaspora.
