In a statement issued at the party headquarters in Harare this evening, Ambassador Khaya Moyo said Cde Mugabe was notified yesterday, in the morning.

He also announced that Zanu PF has proceeded further to instruct the Chief Whip to go ahead with impeachment processes against President Mugabe as it has not received the anticipated confirmation of his resignation from the Speaker of Parliament.
