Below is Dr. Victor Chimhutu’s narration of the chilling events leading up to today. ZANU PF leader Emmerson Mnangagwa sent many emissaries seeking his former boss, Robert Mugabe’s endorsement, but all to no avail. Mugabe has since chosen to back MDC Alliance leader Nelson Chamisa instead. FULL TEXT:

@edmnangagwa praises ICON, RG Mugabe. ED send many emmisaries to seek the endorsement of RGM. Too bad the endorsement didn’t come. RGM has stated that he is inclined to vote for @nelsonchamisa, 4 what he represents. None can claim to know ED better than #Mugabe himself. pic.twitter.com/3DWQPvs4mR
