Zuma worried about Zim

10 January 2008 - The Zimbabwean

The new president of the African National Congress (ANC), Jacob Zuma, has expressed grave concern over the deteriorating standards of living in Zimbabwe, and accused the government of President Robert Mugabe of failing to address the problems transparently in its desperate bid to cling to power.

A highly placed source within the ANC told CAJ News this week that Zuma was also concerned at the number of undocumented Zimbabweans crossing into South Africa. (See story P8).
The source further stated that Zuma had recently met MDC president Morgan Tsvangirai, but this was denied by MDC spokesman Nelson Chamisa, who confirmed that the MDC was indeed in touch with the ANC on an ongoing basis.
The ANC source said Zuma would meet Tsvangirai before the end of this month to discuss the way forward on Zimbabwe's forthcoming harmonized elections scheduled to take place in March. - CAJ News
