In a bold move, Wabathu Economic Empowerment Revolutionaries (WEERS), a group aligned with former Zanu PF official Savior Kasukuwere, has publicly backed Vice President General Constantino Chiwenga’s efforts to combat corruption. This show of support comes amid intense infighting within Zanu PF, with various factions rallying behind different leaders.

WEERS, led by Xavier Kazizi, issued a strong statement outlining their stance. They emphasized their commitment to upholding Constitutionalism in Zimbabwe, opposing the extension of term limits, and rejecting plans to postpone the 2028 elections. The group also reiterated their support for Chiwenga, praising his stance against corruption and mismanagement of state resources.

Chiwenga has been vocal about his anti-corruption efforts, calling for greater participation from businesses in anti-corruption initiatives and emphasizing the need for a robust legislative framework to combat graft ¹. WEERS’ endorsement of Chiwenga’s efforts is a significant development in the ongoing power struggle within Zanu PF. As tensions continue to rise, it remains to be seen how this will play out in the coming months.
