How Zimbabweans Reacted to Fortune Chasi's Denial of Presidential Ambitions

Deputy Minister of Transport and Infrastructure Fortune Chasi yesterday responded to suggestions on Twitter that he’d make a good president for Zanu-PF in the 2023 elections, saying he has no interest in the presidency of the party.

My picture below has been used for a poster suggesting that I have ambitions beyond my current position. The suggestion has not originated from myself nor do I have such ambitions or intentions. My party has its procedures & I’m bound by & support the choices already made.

Whilst I respect every person’s views & opinions, I am of the strongest view that regard must be had to my own circumstances & as a party member. I have never expressed myself as such & have never contemplated such.

I consider it mischievous that a campaign poster can be created & circulated without consultations with me or my approval. Accordingly, I wish to to emphatically disassociate myself from the suggestions.

My party, ZANU PF, has specific constitutional provisions dealing with Presidential candidate selection. I am bound thereby. I support fully our President .

His attempts to disassociate himself, however, ignited several tweets, polls and jokes of people with repeating the point that he’d be a better president than Emmerson Mnangagwa:
