Independent legislator for Norton, Temba Mliswa has said that first lady Grace Mugabe must stop usurping President Robert Mugabe’s executive powers by involving herself in executive matters. Said Mliswa:
The President must zero in on First Lady Grace Mugabe, who must not be involved in executive issues.
Executive issues are issues of the executive and not the First Lady. There should be a separation of powers and as a legislator, I get disappointed when the First Lady gets herself involved in issues of the executive. The executive powers are with the President.
When the First Lady speaks now, it is as good as the President is speaking because the President has not been able to control her.
That is something that is rather sad for this country. Mugabe must stop the rot.
