By Own Correspondent- President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s junior, Vice President Constantino Chiwenga has reportedly been flown to South Africa for medical attention.

Sources privy to the developments said Chiwenga was flown to South Africa on June 23. He has not seen in public for over a month now.

He was airlifted to India for treatment last month, which was the second time he had been to the Asian subcontinent this year.

The cause of his illness has remained a mystery as the Chiwengas have preferred to keep the issue under wraps revealing that they are suffering from an unnamed ailment.

However, there are reports suggesting that VP Chiwenga was poisoned although details regarding the issue have also not been confirmed.

VP Chiwenga was on 18 June appointed the Acting President when President Emmerson Mnangagwa left the country for Mozambique.

However, the former army commander was not at the airport to see off the President. Even on President Mnangagwa’s return, the VP was also absent.

Chiwenga is reportedly in a critical condition and has changed physically.
