"Political Turmoil: “ED Must Go” and the Cracks in ZANU-PF Back home, the political scene is no less dramatic. While President Mnangagwa is officially on leave, the corridors of power are buzzing. War veterans, once his fiercest supporters, are now calling for him to step down. Cde Blessed Runesu Geza, a former freedom fighter, did not mince his words: “We fought for Zimbabwe, not for one man to rule forever. It’s time for ED to step aside peacefully,” he declared in a viral video. For many Zimbabweans, this is a moment of déjà vu—similar murmurs preceded Robert Mugabe’s ousting in 2017. But this time, there is no clear successor. Vice President Constantino Chiwenga, a man once seen as a kingmaker, is now locked in a public feud with businessman Wicknell Chivayo. At a national hero’s burial, Chiwenga made a bold speech condemning corruption, seen by many as a jab at powerful figures close to Mnangagwa. In a fiery response, Chivayo, a flashy millionaire with government contracts, fired back on social media: “You are a failed politician! I am not afraid of you. I support ED only!”" https://tsikdem.co.zw/zimbabwe-in-january-2025-a-nation-at-a-crossroads/ Can also Follow us on https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaCz0IBK5cDGjrCZq41F
