Spotlight Zimbabwe claims that the working relationship between President Emmerson Mnangagwa and his Deputy Constantino Chiwenga is at an all-time low as the two jostles for control of the ruling party and country.
The report cites unnamed sources in the Office of the President and Cabinet (OPC) who said that the two are no longer on speaking terms since the VP returned from India where he had gone for a medical review. Part of the report reads:
Chiwenga has not been seen in public nor appeared on state television for over a month, raising a red political flag that he could be planning to brew a shocker, in the form of kicking Mnangagwa out of power, using his reported health woes as a perfect cover story for his absence, government insiders have said.
