President Robert Mugabe has gazetted a statutory instrument paving the way for axed Vice-President Joice Mujuru to receive her terminal benefits, eight months after she was forced out.

The Presidential Pension and Retirement Benefits published in Statutory Instrument 86 of 2015, gazetted on August 7, says Mujuru will enjoy several benefits including personal security, medical aid, travel allowances and domestic workers paid for by the State.

Mujuru will, among other things, be provided with a domestic worker, a gardener, two drivers, a private secretary, a close security unit officer, two aide-de-camp officers and use of a Mercedes Benz motor vehicle and a colour television set. The former VP will also be entitled to medical cover and air travel once a year.

“The President, in terms of Section 3 (1) of the Presidential Pension and Retirement Benefits Act, hereby makes the following notice: This notice may be cited as the Presidential Pension and Retirement Benefits (services and facilities for former VPs) notice 2015,” read the notice in part.

“A former Vice-President of Zimbabwe, who has at any time since December 31 1987 been Vice-President for at least one full term of office, shall be entitled to use and enjoyment of the following services, facilities and allowances…”

Mujuru, was unceremoniously kicked out of her office in an unprecedented onslaught led by Mugabe’s wife, Grace, who accused her of gossiping, plotting to unseat her husband and witchcraft, among a host of accusations.

Under the new Constitution, Mujuru is entitled to a pension and other benefits as long as she lives. – Source-Newsday
