Tsvangirai cancels honeymoon

By Staff Reporter

Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai and his new wife Elizabeth Macheka have decided to cancel their honeymoon and spend the week in Zimbabwe so that the MDC-T leader can concentrate on “pressing national issues.”

Although it was expected the PM would take two weeks off for the traditional post-wedding break, his spokesman Luke Tamborinyoka told the Daily News that the couple will be at their new State House in Highlands, Harare.

“The PM is at his home, resting after a hectic two weeks. He has chosen not to go on a honeymoon because of various critical national issues such as the constitution, starvation, which do not need an absence in national leadership.

“He has not gone on a honeymoon. He will be available to attend to any pressing national issues. This is no time for a honeymoon. He is on call,” Tamborinyoka told the paper.
