The ruling Zanu PF party in Zimbabwe has received an invitation to partake in the electoral campaign of its partner, the ruling African National Congress (ANC) in South Africa.
Zanu PF has been invited to join the ANC’s campaign team as it moves into the latter phases of its campaigns for the forthcoming, fiercely contested election on May 29.

Obert Mpofu, the secretary-general of Zanu PF, revealed the details and said that the ANC had invited Zanu PF, its “colleague.”
It is important to remember that since Zimbabwe’s independence from British colonial authority in 1980, the ruling party has been in charge of the country in southern Africa.
“We have communicated with the ruling party in South Africa.” We are keeping a careful eye on the internal problem that is occurring there. The State-run newspaper The Herald, which is extensively read in the neighboring country, cited Mpofu as stating, “I cannot rule out the fact that we can go and assist if they need assistance from us.”
“South Africans need to address important issues regarding the political developments that are occurring there.”
