RESULTS OF THE DIPLOMATIC SHUTTLES A ten week conference,the Geneva conference ,was held in Switzerland. It was chaired by Britain. Before the Geneva conference in 1976 ,ZANU and ZAPU formed the patriotic front(PF)so that they could speak with one voice at the conference. Mugabe and Nkomo were co-chairpersons of the PF. The PF was an umbrella organ that put ZANU and ZAPU together but the two parties remained independent of each other . The British -American settlement proposals were rejected by the people . Smith sidelined the PF and held discussions with Sithole (zanu),Mzorewa (UANC) and Chief Jeremia Chirau of Zimbabwe peoples organisation.
