By KITSEPILE NYATHI Zimbabwe on Tuesday summoned United States ambassador to Harare to protest against Washington's alleged interference in the southern African country's forthcoming elections. Ms Elaine French, who is the US acting ambassador to Zimbabwe, was summoned by the foreign affairs ministry after her embassy made several Twitter posts encouraging Zimbabweans to 'register to vote and make sure your voice is heard'. Zimbabwe's Foreign Affairs Ministry said its acting permanent secretary Ambassador Rofina Chikava protested over the tweets and urged Americans not to meddle in the country's political processes.
