Former First Lady <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Grace_Mugabe/">Grace Mugabe</a>, the widow of Zimbabwe’s late founding leader, Robert Mugabe, was in attendance at President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s inauguration ceremony held at the National Sports Stadium in Harare on Monday. The presence of Grace Mugabe, accompanied by her daughter Bona and Robert Mugabe Junior, was met with cheers from the crowd, indicating that the former First Family still holds a measure of public support.
Considering the circumstances surrounding her husband’s departure from the political scene, where he was “forced” to resign following the military’s intervention and the dismissal of Mnangagwa as Vice President, it was uncertain whether Grace would attend the event. Bona had previously attended Mnangagwa’s initial inauguration, while Robert had been seen at various ZANU PF rallies.
When Grace approached the podium and embraced Mnangagwa, the stadium erupted with noise, creating an impression of reconciliation and potentially signalling her endorsement of Mnangagwa as the leader of the nation in Southern Africa.
Former Vice Presidents <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Phelekezela_Mphoko/">Phelekezela Mphoko</a> (considered a member of the G40 cabal) and <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Joice_Mujuru/">Joice Mujuru</a>, along with losing presidential candidates <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Lovemore_Madhuku/">Lovemore Madhuku</a>, Gwinyai Henry Muzorewa, and Harry Peter Wilson, were present at the event.
According to <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Pedzisai_Ruhanya/">Pedzisai Ruhanya</a>, a Zimbabwean academic, journalist, and political commentator, the return of former G40 members to ZANU PF after Mugabe’s ousting reveals the political dynamics within post-ED ZANU PF. Ruhanya who is also the director of the <a class="new" href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/index.php?title=Zimbabwe_Democracy_Institute&amp;action=edit&amp;redlink=1" title="Zimbabwe Democracy Institute (page does not exist)">Zimbabwe Democracy Institute</a> (ZDI), said:
<blockquote>
The trooping back to ZANU PF of former G40 members after the coup against Mugabe as seen at the inauguration of President Mnangagwa and some’s appearances in media spaces controlled by the government indicate post-ED ZANU PF political dynamics.
</blockquote>
Some speculate that Grace Mugabe attended the event due to concerns that any misstep could lead to investigations into her family’s “ill-gotten” wealth. Additionally, there is an ongoing divorce case involving her daughter Bona and Simba Chikore, therefore, Mnangagwa could possibly influence the outcome. Joyce Mujuru’s attendance is seen as a move to protect her interests, as she became vulnerable after her husband’s mysterious death. Some say Phelekezela Mphoko’s presence may be an attempt to influence his son’s rape case, as Siqokoqela was convicted and sentenced for raping his 12-year-old niece but is currently out on bail pending an appeal.
Mnangagwa took oath of office in front of <a class="text__text__1FZLe text__inherit-color__3208F text__inherit-font__1Y8w3 text__inherit-size__1DZJi link__underline_default__2prE_" data-testid="Link" href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Luke_Malaba/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Chief Justice Luke Malaba</a> who in 2018 declared Mnangagwa as the winner following a constitutional court challenge. He said:
<blockquote>
I stand as a president of all. I offer you individually and collectively, unity.
</blockquote>
A number of African leaders, such as South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, Mozambique leader Phillipe Nyusi, and Congolese President Felix Tshisekedi, attended the swearing-in ceremony. However, Zambian President Hakainde Hichilema decided not to attend.
<a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Nelson_Chamisa/">Nelson Chamisa</a>, the leader of the opposition Citizens’ Coalition for Change (CCC) party, called for a fresh vote, claiming the election was “flawed.” However, his party did not legally challenge the results, allowing Mnangagwa’s inauguration. Mnangagwa urged the opposition to seek redress in court, asserting the validity of the vote and cautioning against spreading chaos, with a warning of crackdowns.
According to the preliminary report by the SADC observer mission, the election failed to meet both regional and international standards. Additionally, the EU observer mission described the polls as taking place in a “climate of fear.” The government faced criticism for arresting more than 40 activists from civic society organizations and allegations of widespread voter intimidation in rural areas. While the voting process itself was peaceful, significant delays in the distribution of ballot papers marred the polling, leading to accusations of voter suppression by the opposition.
After years of isolation, Zimbabwe, under Mnangagwa’s leadership, has aimed to rebuild relationships with Western partners. However, his second term begins amidst ongoing economic difficulties, including an 80% devaluation of the Zim dollar this year and frozen international funding. Without foreign assistance, Zimbabwe’s economic struggles are likely to persist, leaving millions uncertain about their future.

Grace Mugabe And Some G40 Members Attend President Mnangagwa's Inauguration

Zimbabwe’s former Education Minister during the Government of National Unity (GNU), David Coltart, has expressed concern over a BBC article on opposition leader Nelson Chamisa of the Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC). Coltart noted that the article lacked balance, contained untruthful information about Chamisa, and urged the BBC to seek fresh perspectives. He said:
<blockquote>
I am concerned about the @BBCAfrica rehashing a story from 5 years ago which lacks balance and which in some respects is untruthful about @nelsonchamisa. Whilst I am obviously partisan how about reaching out afresh to some of us for our perspective on Chamisa?

In 2017, the UK Government was accused of assisting President Emmerson Mnangagwa in the removal of Robert Mugabe from power. Some believe that the BBC, as a public corporation of the British Department for Culture, Media and Sport, played a huge part in sanctifying Mugabe’s ouster. However, the extent of external involvement in political transitions remains uncertain due to the complexities involved and the difficulty in determining behind-the-scenes dynamics and influences.

Zimbabwe's Ex-Education Minister Coltart Expresses Concern Over BBC Article On Chamisa

Zimbabwe’s Information, Publicity and Broadcasting Services secretary, <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Nick_Mangwana">Nick Mangwana</a>, has said countries under sanctions have to find ways of circumventing the sanctions.
His remarks come after <a href="https://zero.pindula.co.zw/watch-episode-01-of-al-jazeeras-gold-mafia/">Al Jazeera</a> released the <a href="https://zero.pindula.co.zw/watch-episode-01-of-al-jazeeras-gold-mafia/">1st episode</a> of its documentary titled <a href="https://zero.pindula.co.zw/watch-episode-01-of-al-jazeeras-gold-mafia/">Gold Mafia</a> which is an expose of illicit trade in Zimbabwe’s mining sector.
has attracted brickbats after indirectly defending alleged gold smuggling exposed in Al Jeezera’s documentary Gold Mafia: The Laundry Service.
In a Twitter post seen by Pindula News, Mangwana said:
<blockquote>
Countries under Sanctions have to find ways of circumventing the sanctions. This may mean having to procure supplies through third parties or sell in a grey market. They pay pay a premium for this. This is exactly what the UN Rapporteur Alena Douhan was talking about #RussianOil
</blockquote>
The first of a four-part documentary was aired last week in which President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s ambassador-at-large, Uebert Mudzanire, alias prophet Uebert Angel and the President’s niece Henrietta Rushwaya were implicated in the alleged gold smuggling activities.
The second episode of the documentary is scheduled to air this Thursday.
Responding to Mangwana’s Twitter post, <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Pedzisai_Ruhanya">Pedzisai Ruhanya</a>, the director of the Zimbabwe Democracy Institute Mangwana’s tricks won’t work. He posted on Twitter:
<blockquote>
A government spokesperson can’t surely defend gold smuggling, corruption and Stone Age accumulation. This lie won’t stick. Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe has spoken out that it’s not sanctioned. This area is not Nick’s zone of competence or expertise. We have RBZ digital footprints to falsify the lie by Nick.
Nick Mangwana should read the propaganda model (Herman and Chomsky, 1988) and so clearly understand political communication in the digital age to avoid these childish rants.
</blockquote>
Award-winning journalist, <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Hopewell_Chin%27ono">Hopewell Chin’ono</a>, responded to Mangwana’s remarks saying the secretary was lying. He said:
<blockquote>
Mr Nick Mangwana is testing the waters; it is a futile attempt to defend gold smuggling using a lie. The RBZ Governor John Mangudya issued a statement… saying the bank is not sanctioned. Everything else is crude propaganda and lies.
</blockquote>
Before the first episode of the Al Jazeera documentary was screened, Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ) governor, John Mangudya said Zimbabwean exports and imports were not under sanctions.
The documentary says Zimbabwe is engaged in illicit trade in gold to “circumvent international sanctions.”

Countries Under Sanctions Find Ways Of Circumventing Sanctions - Mangwana

<a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Pedzisai_Ruhanya">Pedzisai Ruhanya</a>, a political analyst, has said self-exiled former ministers <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Jonathan_Moyo">Jonathan Moyo</a> and <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Patrick_Zhuwao">Patrick Zhuwao</a> might be preparing for life after President <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Emmerson_Mnangagwa">Emmerson Mnangagwa</a> in the party. 
The two politicians are among several former senior government officials who fled from the country when Mnangagwa ascended to power in 2028. They were opposed to his rise.  
Ruhanya’s remarks come after the duo wrote an open letter to ZANU PF members apologising for using the #ZanuPfMustGo hashtag. Ruhanya said:
<blockquote>
If you look at the letter by Moyo and Zhuwao, it was directed to supporters and not Mnangagwa, hence they were not apologising to him. The tradition is that when Zanu-PF people come back, they do so through the party.
So, they are apologising to the party members so they can say that they had problems with certain elements within the party, and not the party itself. It is a post-Mnangagwa re-alignment scheme.
ZANU PF is represented by the president and not party members. So, this is also a post-Mnangagwa realignment plot. Mnangagwa is entering his second term as provided by the national constitution. So, the projection is that they must have a life after Mnangagwa in Zanu-PF.  
</blockquote>
Ruhanya said the return of disaffected political heavyweights could also signal an attempt by the military to reunite the party ahead of the 2023 general elections.
Another political analyst, Rashweat Mukundu, told <a href="https://thenewshawks.com/moyo-zhuwao-preparing-for-life-after-mnangagwa-analysts/">The News Hawks</a> that the opposition Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) should be wary of its dealings with ZANU PF rebels who leave the party after losing power. He said:
<blockquote>
Well, the adage is that there are no permanent friends in politics, but permanent interests. We are seeing a typical behaviour of political prostitution that is informed by political interest. So, the movement of Zhuwao and others back to ZANU PF is not much of a surprise.
</blockquote>
Mukundu said the bigwigs booted out of the party are failing to cope with the “new life” which has in the past been sustained by state resources.

Ruhanya Says Jonathan Moyo, Zhuwao Might Be Preparing For Life After Mnangagwa

Zanu PF using their website took a jibe at political commentator and activist Pedzisai Ruhanya and said he was having sleepless nights and nightmares because he is afraid of imminent arrest.
Calling him a Pseudo academic, Zanu PF went on to say Ruhanya’s Tweet in which he said he had a nightmare, was evidence that Ruhanya was afraid that the net was closing in on him.
Ruhanya earlier today tweeted about his nightmare which was used by the ruling party to take a swipe at him:
<blockquote>Had a very bad dream last night. Saw violent abductions of citizens, inhumane and degrading treatment. My sleep was cut short. The incidents were bad. My hope is that its just a dream that there are no such plans in the coming nights. But ZANU PF being ZANU PF, u never know.</blockquote>
Zanu Pf went on to say Ruhanya confided to his close allies who inturn told Zanu PF people that he was depressed because of the stands saga.
According to the ruling party:
<blockquote>Ruhanya got a residential stand in Westlea without following laid out procedure according to city council documents under investigation by the President’s Special Anti-Corruption Unit.
He was implicated alongside MDC-A Secretary for International Relations, Gladys Hlatywayo who was allocated residential stand number 11416 in Westlea for free.
This latest development was first leaked to the ZANU PF Department Information and Publicity by Dr Ruhanya’s close associate who further revealed that his friend was fast drifting into depression mode</blockquote>
Ruhanya has been the ruling party’s fiercest critic over the last few months, calling out all the ills bedevilling the country and the ruling party’s maladministration.
Ruhanya has not yet commented on the article or on the allegations made in the article. We will update this article as new details emerge.

Zanu PF Takes A Jab At Pedzisai Ruhanya

MDC Alliance activist, Pedzisai Ruhanya has urged fellow party members to desist from insulting the leader of the MDC-T, Thokozani Khupe who has been locked in a gruesome leadership wrangle with Nelson Chamisa.
Ruhanya’s remarks come after some MDC Alliance have suggested that Khupe used her political power to recall her ex-lover senator Gideon Shoko who is also the father of her daughter. Posting on Twitter, Ruhanya said:
<blockquote>Whatever is happening in MDC, Khupe fundamentally is a good person. She is not as malicious as Mwonzora. I urge MDC Alliance supporters to differ with her with respect and not to use gender against her. Khupe had and has a legitimate grievance than those men who joined her.
One of the reasons why I urge MDC Alliance supporters to be careful on their differences with Hon Khupe is that we are a society that has a lot of foolish perceptions about women, where we use gender to muzzle women. On that basis I dont want to join that bandwagon. Respect her.</blockquote>
His remarks echo with those of Linda Masarira, the leader of the Labour Economists and African Democrats (LEAD). <a href="https://news.pindula.co.zw/2020/07/03/this-is-the-highest-level-of-mediocrity-misogyny-idiocy-masarira-on-khupe-ex-lover-saga/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Masarira described the attacks against Khupe as stupidity</a> which should be castigated by every progressive person.
