Chiwenga & Army Reportedly Plotting Against Mnangagwa In Operation Restore Economy
A website called Spotlight Zimbabwe which is said to have reported on the November 2017 coup plans accurately before it happened, published an article claiming that Vice President Chiwenga and a section of the army are plotting an operation against Mnangagwa.
The operation, according to the website is called Operation Restore Economy.
Reports Spotlight Zimbabwe:
Combative Vice President, Rtd General Constantino Chiwenga, and a hardline military faction backing his political doctrine and ambitions, are reportedly on the verge of booting President Emmerson Mnangagwa out of office at any moment now, through another subtle military intervention, allegedly called ‘Operation Restore Economy’, Spotlight Zimbabwe, can exclusively reveal.
Mnangagwa is said to have been warned by the army in October 2018, to urgently put the country’s economic house in order, as they feared a possible popular uprising over his administration’s new extortionate taxes, uncontrollable price escalations, and growing shortages of fuel, but he has failed to find a breakthrough thus far.
Operation Restore Economy, the sources say is reminiscent of the November 2017 Operation Restore Legacy, a military campaign which triggered the demise of former leader Robert Mugabe.
