Ask Mugabe to resign now - angry Zimbabweans tell marching Zanu-PF youths

As Zanu-PF's march-hyped million man march gets underway tomorrow ,long suffering Zimbabweans say the demonstrating party members would best  use the opportunity by telling president Robert Mugabe to step down, rather than massage the increasingly frail non agrarian's ego.

The controversial demonstration, a brainchild of the former liberation  movements youths league aligned  to the party's generation 40  faction has now been grudgingly embraced by the embattled vice president Emmerson Mnangagwa's supporters after Mugabe was recently reported to have arm twisted war veterans to support it.

Opposition parties and civil society groups yesterday continued to pile pressure on Zanu-PF to call off their planned million man march in solidarity with President Robert Mugabe tomorrow, describing it as useless waste of resources.

The march, expected to cost at least $600 000 comes at a time the national economy is on a brink with banks facing crippling cash shortages.

The MDC-T said people should instead use the march to call on Mugabe and the government to immediately step down.
