Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe has been sued for wrongfully dismissing his two former ruling party senior officials.<\/p>\n

The two were sacked from the party<\/strong> <\/a><\/span>in December and February for allegedly plotting to oust him.<\/p>\n

The BBC reports that Ruagare Gumbo and Didymus Mutasa have filed papers in the High Court of Zimbabwe seeking an order to reinstate them into Zanu-PF.<\/p>\n

\"Mujuru\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Rugare Gumbo earlier \u00a0told the BBC the 90-year-old leader had \u201ccompletely\u201d turned the party into his \u201cpersonal property\u201d.<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”vBFtUIyG9wW3CVe12T8fqqJmCy3EqH5I”]\u00a0The former Zanu PF member said Mugabe had targeted Mrs Mujuru to advance the \u201cfortunes\u201d of his wife Grace.<\/p>\n

There have also been reports that Mugabe is staging a personal attack against Mujuru to promote his own interest and that of his wife.<\/p>\n

Mugabe has however denied such claims, saying ” my wife is not the power behind my throne”<\/p>\n

The pair are also seeking that the court also strike down reforms that President Mugabe brought in at the party conference last December.<\/p>\n

If successful, the president’s two former stalwarts would call for an extraordinary congress of the party where a new leader could be elected to replace Mugabe.<\/p>\n
