Mnangagwa's Presidency Extension Gaining Momentum

Mnangagwa's Presidency Extension Gaining Momentum

ZANU PF’s bid to extend President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s presidency beyond 2028 is reportedly gaining traction, with several party structures rallying nationwide support for the plan.

Mnangagwa’s current term is constitutionally set to end in 2028, marking the completion of his second and final term as President. Despite this, there are growing calls within his party to extend his tenure.

The President has repeatedly said that he has no intention of staying in office beyond the end of his second term in 2028.

Despite Mnangagwa’s position, various ZANU PF affiliates and structures, which played key roles in his previous campaigns, have openly endorsed the idea of extending his presidency until 2030.

Last weekend, ZANU PF chairpersons from all 10 provinces gathered at the President’s Precabe farm in Kwekwe, where they reaffirmed their commitment to pushing for the extension of Mnangagwa’s term to 2030.

In an interview with the Independent, ZANU PF spokesperson Chris Mutsvangwa said that the party plans to promote Mnangagwa’s achievements since taking office in 2017 as part of the campaign to extend his presidency. Said Mutsvangwa:

The party is preparing for the eventuality of implementing the 2030 resolution.

This entails mass awareness of the sterling record of President Emmerson Dambudzo Mnangagwa as a deliverer of rare calibre statesmanship.

At the end of the day, the party membership works for, prays and hopes for resonance with the all-important electorate.

The party organs and mass structures are now mobilising to parry aside any distractions as he discharges his second term. They are keen to see much more of the development dividend.

He will garner overwhelming membership support on merit and track record of performance and delivery. This is why his detractors are quaking.

They are hankering to turn him into a lame-duck leader through a foisted and premature anointment of an incompetent successor.

ZANU PF is set to hold an elective congress in 2027, ahead of the harmonised elections scheduled for 2028.

ZANU PF Harare provincial chairperson, Goodwills Masimirembwa, told The Independent that the party is awaiting a constitutional amendment that would allow President Mnangagwa to remain in office beyond 2028. Said Masimirembwa:

Implementation of National Conference resolutions is done by ZANU PF national leadership, not by provinces. Harare Province adopted the 2030 resolution together with other provinces. Nothing has changed.

We remain in full support and look forward to the amendment of the constitution or passing of other legal instruments to enable His Excellency Dr E D Mnangagwa to continue serving as State President beyond 2028.

ZANU PF provinces are not in the business of thinking about other candidates during the term of an incumbent. Our total and undivided loyalty is to His Excellency Dr Emmerson Dambudzo Mnangagwa.

Mnangagwa is currently limited by the constitution, which permits only two five-year terms in office.

Even if the constitution is amended, certain provisions would still prevent the incumbent from benefiting.

These provisions would require a referendum to be amended for Mnangagwa to remain in office beyond 2028.

The dictator yields the power of the gun in the hands of willing tools. All that support is born of command and fear. Just like they praised Mugabe, only to denounce him a few months later when he lost power. They hate Mnangagwa even much more.

The Zimbabwe National Chamber of Commerce (ZNCC) has warned the government that the country’s foreign currency reserves, which stand at US$540 million, are insufficient to cover even one month of imports. The warning comes as Zimbabwe faces a growing financial crisis, with the country being unable to access new credit lines from global lenders and its national debt soaring to US$21 billion. In its latest industry and commerce report, released this week, the ZNCC said that Zimbabwe’s imports in October 2024 alone amounted to US$835.8 million, surpassing exports, which totalled US$698.1 million. This growing disparity further exacerbates the country’s foreign currency shortage and deepens its economic challenges. Reads the report: Zimbabwe’s current foreign exchange reserves, amounting to approximately US$540 million as of 31 October 2024, are far from sufficient to inspire confidence. While this figure reportedly provides more than three times the reserve money cover, it pales compared to the country’s import needs. For perspective, Zimbabwe’s imports in October 2024 alone totalled US$835,8 million, significantly higher than exports, which amounted to US$698,1 million. This means the country’s official reserves are insufficient to cover even one month’s import bill, raising serious concerns about the sustainability of the nation’s foreign currency management and the goal of exchange rate stability. While presenting the 2025 National Budget last Thursday, Finance Minister Mthuli Ncube announced that Zimbabwe’s foreign currency receipts had risen by 17.9%, reaching US$10 billion in the first nine months of 2024, up from US$8.5 billion during the same period in 2023. This increase was largely attributed to higher export receipts and diaspora remittances, which contributed 59% and 25% of the total inflows, respectively. However, in its latest report, the ZNCC expressed concern over the lack of confidence in the ZiG, which was reintroduced in April, by both households and businesses. It said: The policymakers’ statements regarding the expedited de-dollarisation framework following the new currency’s launch have further discouraged households and businesses from holding onto the ZiG for extended periods. This reaction is rooted in memories of the policy steps taken in 2019 under similar circumstances. Moreover, with the government being the largest employer and the ZiG essentially functioning as a ‘small change’, civil servants, other employees, and employers — whose incomes are predominantly in ZiG — face challenges. Despite earning in ZiG, they must pay for essentials such as transportation, fuel, rent, and groceries, which are generally cheaper in US dollars. As a result, many are offloading their ZiG earnings on the parallel market, irrespective of the prevailing rate, while others are offloading their ZiG balances on the formal market, taking advantage of the rate differentials.

Everyone doesn't want civil war but circumstances force people to it,same as Syria no one wanted a bloody civil war but it happened anywhere because the regime there pushed people to a breaking point.

They want it. They want a leader for life because their life is easy under the current regime. If there is someone else, they may have do something that they haven't done for a long time. Actually work.

when RGM was removed they termed it operation restore legacy which focused on removing criminals around the president,same thing is happening all over again,these people who don't care about the constitution are doing everything for their selfish needs..protecting their interests and fear of prosecution if a new head of state takes over..
