By Own Correspondent| President Emmerson Mnangagwa has spoken following the explosion at his White City rally in Bulawayo Saturday afternoon.

The incident, which had the horrific effect of a bomb explosion, saw many injured and Vice President Constantino Chiwenga’s wife hospitalised. Vice President Kembo Mohadi was also hospitalised.

An investigation carried on ZimEye.com within the hour, showed with clear, impeccable evidence that a bomb look alike object flew into Mnangagwa’s way as he descended the stage area. (See below video).

Following the incident, Mnangagwa has issued the below statement:

This afternoon, as we were leaving a wonderful rally in Bulawayo, there was an explosion on the stage. Several people were affected by the blast, and I have already been to visit them in the hospital. While we await further information, my thoughts and prayers are with all those affected by this senseless act of violence.

The campaign so far has been conducted in a free and peaceful environment, and we will not allow this cowardly act to get in our way as we move towards elections.
