A few armoured vehicles have been seen on a main public road outside the city having left one of the country’s main military barracks, Inkomo.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/header>\n

It is not clear where they were heading but they have not been seen on the streets of Harare.<\/p>\n

One of the vehicles had broken down on the side of the road, according to BBC correspondents in Zimbabwe’s capital, Harare.<\/p>\n

Earlier, leader of the Zanu-PF youth wing, Kudzai Chipanga, said his members would not allow the armed forces to subvert the constitution and were prepared to die to defend President Mugabe.<\/p>\n

He told a press conference in Harare that the military chief did not enjoy the support of the “entire defence force”.<\/p>\n

Last week, Mr Mugabe sacked Vice-President Emmerson Mnangagwa – his comrade from the 1970s war for independence – and Zanu-PF expelled him after accusing him of disloyalty.<\/p>\n

His expulsion was seen as an attempt to pave the way for Mrs Mugabe to be elected vice-president at the Zanu-PF conference next month, putting her in pole position to succeed her 93-year-old husband when he retires or dies.<\/p>\n

NewZimbabwe.com quoted a spokesman for the smaller People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Jackson Mafume, as saying General Chiwenga was complcit in allowing the biblical “Delilah [Mrs Mugabe] to capture their Samson [Mr Mugabe].”<\/p>\n

Zimbabwe’s state-linked media observed a black-out of yesterday’s press conference by army chief General Constantino Chiwenga, warning that the military will step in if the ruling Zanu-PF party continues with its “treacherous shenanigans” and purges the party of critics of President Robert Mugabe and his wife Grace.<\/p>\n

The Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corporation did not cover the press conference while The Herald newspaper took down an article it had initially posted on its website.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
