Africa-Press<\/a> – Zimbabwe<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>The Minister of Justice, Legal and Parliamentary Affairs, Ziyambi Ziyambi is reportedly facing the chop for alleged alignment to the Generation 40 (G40) cabal, a vanquished ZANU faction.<\/p>\n

Anonymous sources say Ziyambi was working with the G40 to discredit President Emmerson Mnangagwa. It is further alleged that Ziyambi\u2019s attack on the judiciary following a ruling by the High Court that resulted in the removal of former Chief Justice Luke Malaba was merely a desperate strategy to avoid the chop.<\/p>\n

In the statement, Ziyambi accused the judiciary of being captured by the country\u2019s \u201cenemies.\u201d He said in a statement issued Sunday:<\/p>\n

_The situation now in this country is that there is a risk of judicial capture where the Judiciary has been captured by certain elements both within and outside Zimbabwe who want to destabilise the second Republic._<\/b><\/p>\n

Sources say the statement has done less to save Ziyambi from the chop since it has caused more damage to the name of the president.<\/p>\n

Reports of factionalism in the ruling ZANU PF have increased in the recent past.<\/p>\n

Some of the ruling party\u2019s District Coordinating Committee (DCC) elections that were scheduled to be held last year were suspended after alleged factional clashes.<\/p>\n

The G40 is reportedly seeking an opportunity to bounce back and take control of the party.<\/p>\n

There are also reports that suggest that apart from the G40, President Mnangagwa and his deputy, Constantino Chiwenga lead rival factions with the latter eager to dislodge his boss.<\/p>\n

The alleged factionalism is reportedly the main reason why ZANU PF rejected the running mate clause fearing the incumbent leader can be toppled by his deputy.<\/p>\n
