Just when the media and everyone was abuzz that Vice President Emmerson Mnangagwa had been defeated by First Lady Grace Mugabe, in the race to succeed President Robert Mugabe, the seasoned politician has countered the First Lady’s moves.
The ZANU PF annual National Conference had come up with several resolutions which all favoured Grace Mugabe to ascend the party hierarchy and dispose Mnangagwa from his position. The major resolution favouring Grace was to have the party resort back to its previous position of having one of the two Vice Presidents as a woman.
Further to that the party has a standing Unity Agreement resolution between ZANU PF and PF ZAPU that one of the Vice Presidents must be a former PF ZAPU member. Second Vice President Phelekezela Mpokho is the current Vice from the former PF ZAPU.
That resolution somehow calculated the immediate fall of Mnangagwa by design and the rise of Grace as a female Vice President.
But drama emerged, sources within the party say that the tactical Mnangagwa lobbied the Matabeleland regions during the night to move that the proposed female Vice President be from the former PF ZAPU members. The first female Vice President was Joice Mujuru who was from the original ZANU side.
The overnight caucus by the Mnangagwa faction is reported to have caused a major mayhem in the party shifting the whole succession ball game. The Matabeleland regions that had been long allies of the First Lady could not resist the offer of having one of their women lead and changed allegiance at an instance.
The new set up further struck headaches for President Mugabe as it now means that he has to remove instead if Mnangagwa, Grace Mugabe’s “blue-eyed boy” Phelekezela Mphoko. The sources claim that former Matabeleland South Governor Angelina Masuku has now been tagged for the position after the development.
Grace Mugabe’s only hope now lies on the benevolence of her husband who has sweeping powers to appoint and remove at his discretion. Judging from President Mugabe’s zeal to leave his seat with a legacy and a united party, it will however be difficult for the President to use that route.
As things now stand the scoreboard reads Croc 3 – Grace 1.

  5. Even though. It would be a new thing. So Mujuru wont count as she is no longer Zanu Pf. Mugabe will simply say ndazvinzwa. But lets start with Grace then a Ndebele to follow.
    Or simply say No No. Rotation is for men onlyyyyyyyy. Women should be permanently shona. Anyway Mujuru was there for ten solid years. Why change now. Seems he has an uphil to task.
    Its not easy with Gushungo. If he is not careful he can be crucified for habouring ma ambitions acho. Kkkkkkkkk.
