Mnangagwa Must Protect the Legacy, Not Ego Let Genroll Chiwenga Lead Zimbabwe Forward as we approaches a critical juncture in our political history, the question of presidential succession has become more than a party matter it is a national concern. The recent whispers of a succession plan that bypasses Vice President Constantino Chiwenga in favor of a criminal tenderpreneur Kudakwashe Tagwirei are not only alarming, but deeply disrespectful to the legacy of our liberation struggle and the constitutional order we claim to uphold.
President Emmerson Mnangagwa must remember the promise of 2017: a Zimbabwe renewed, governed by rule of law, transparency, and merit. That promise cannot be fulfilled if the presidency is reduced to a prize for the politically connected elite criminal Tagwirei, however successful in business, does not carry the mandate of the people nor the credentials of a liberation leader. His rumored elevation to the presidency via party congress and Mnangagwa’s resignation would be a betrayal of democratic norms and a slap in the face of every Zimbabwean who believes in fair elections.
Vice President Chiwenga, on the other hand, is not just a political figure—he is a symbol of continuity, discipline, and sacrifice. His role in the 2017 transition was pivotal, and his military background gives him the gravitas to lead with authority and national unity. To sideline him in favor of a “Criminal tenderpreneur” is to undermine the very foundation of ZANU-PF and the liberation legacy it claims to protect.
The suggestion by ZANU-PF’s Mashonaland East chairman Garwe that there will be “no elections in 2028” is not only unconstitutional it is dangerous. It signals a drift toward authoritarianism and elite capture. Zimbabweans must not be denied their right to choose their leader. The presidency is not a private estate to be handed down behind closed doors. It is a public trust, earned through service and validated by the ballot.
If Mnangagwa truly wishes to be remembered as a statesman, he must protect the legacy—not his ego. He must allow a transparent, constitutional transition that respects the will of the people and the sacrifices of those who fought for our independence. That path leads to Chiwenga—not to backroom deals and corporate puppetry. Zimbabwe deserves leadership rooted in history, not ambition. Let the people decide. Let Chiwenga lead.
