ZANU PF brushed off war veteran, Blessed Geza's plan to boot President Emmerson Mnangagwa from office. The party puts on a united face even as members clearly take different sides.

Geza called for protests that kept many at home Monday. Kicked out of his ZANU PF Central Committee post, he points to widespread corruption under Mnangagwa. Officials call his effort a flop, but experts say empty streets show that public anger runs deep.

"ZANU PF is a mass party," said party spokesman Christopher Mutsvangwa at a Harare event. He explained big parties always include people with different views who sometimes test those ideas. The party stuck together against Geza, he stressed.

Party business keeps moving forward without problems, Mutsvangwa said. He claimed the public rejected what he labeled a thuggish attempt to kick out leaders through bad methods.

Inside reports reveal two groups fighting for control of ZANU PF. One backs Mnangagwa staying beyond his two legal terms. The other wants new faces in charge. Geza leads those demanding that Mnangagwa step down early and vows to push him out.
