Morgan Tsvangirai’s widow Elizabeth Macheka held a private church service at the former Prime Minister’s Highlands mansion on Sunday in the absence of her in-laws and other family members. According to sources that spoke to NewsDay, Macheka’s private church service was largely attended by her Zanu PF friends.
When contacted for comment Elizabeth confirmed holding the service but was surprised by the enquiry saying that it was a private function. Tsvangirai’s younger brother, Manase confirmed to NewsDay that they were not invited and said:
I am hearing it from you. We were not invited and, therefore, we did not attend. I was not even aware that there was a church service. We don’t know what the service was all about. If it was about our brother, we should have been invited.
Sources who attended the service said:
The church service was private. Only Eliza’s close friends, particularly from Zanu PF, and friends from her Roman Catholic Church attended. The place was guarded by soldiers and police officers.
Elizabeth’s father, Joseph Macheka, is a Zanu PF national consultative assembly member and former Chitungwiza mayor.

is that newsworthy ,?There are thousands of church servises held by thousands of people daily and that my friend is not news.Maybe the real news would have been what the preacher preached about despotic bed hopping departed Tswangson
I don’t think if someone holds a church service at their house, it’s worth writing in the newspaper! More to that, when I hold church services at my house, I don’t invite all my relatives.
Kushaya zvekuita imi majournalists…time wastage ,it’s not worthy it ,musiyeyi akadaro.So what if she held it with ZANU friends !!!!
