Farai Dziva| Zanu MP for Goromonzi West Energy Mutodi has claimed there is a difference between Emmerson Mnangagwa’s ascendancy and that of his political rival Nelson Chamisa.

Mutodi, a declared close ally of Emmerson Mnangagwa believes it is not proper to compare ZANU PF and MDC scenarios when it comes to how they handled succession.

Mutodi told Newsday that it was wrong to liken MDC leader Nelson Chamisa’s ascendancy to that of President Emmerson Mnangagwa who came to power on the back of a military coup in 2017.

While Chamisa was chosen by the party’s National Council in 2018 after the death of Morgan Tsvangirai, Mnangagwa took over the reins in ZANU PF after Mugabe’s “forced” resignation.
