President Robert Mugabe dismissed claims of a deadlock between Zanu PF and MDC on the sharing of the cabinet posts. He told Zanu PF supporters who gathered at the Harare International Airport to welcome him that he would appoint cabinet by the end of this week.
Mugabe said before he left for New York, negotiations on the allocation of cabinet posts had begun and only four ministries were still to be shared.
“We never said there was a deadlock, so we will be setting up Government this week before the end of the week,” he said.
Mugabe also added that the power-sharing government did not mean a change in policies.
“Muhurumende yatinoita pane zvatinoti musimboti yezvinangwa zvematongerwe enyika . . . There shall never be a reversal of the land reform programme. Never, ever,” he said.
“Chatinoda ndezvekuti ashandiswe (farms) vanhu varime. Vakaita matatu matatu, mana mana, tinotora mamwe. We will never allow those (farmers) who left for South Africa and Australia to come back and take over.”
