Nick Mangwana reveals why there were no government officials to welcome Chiwenga

Nick Mangwana reveals why there were no government officials to welcome Chiwenga at airport. .The government yesterday made conflicting statements about Vice-President Constantino Chiwenga’s return after his four-month-long stay in China where he was receiving treatment.


Chiwenga quietly flew back into the country yesterday and there were no government officials to welcome him at the Robert Mugabe International Airport.A fit-looking Chiwenga, who appeared to have recovered from an undisclosed ailment, but suspected to be food poisoning, was met at the airport by his son Tawanda, brother Onismo and Chinese deputy ambassador Zhao Boagang.The VP arrived in Harare shortly after 2am aboard a Chinese plane.Information secretary Nick Mangwana said there were no government officials to welcome the VP at the airport because his return had not been “announced.“The VP is back,” Mangwana said


“It wasn’t something that was announced in government that he was coming as he was coming from hospital.“It is just like when he went to hospital, there were no government officials to see him off.“If he wasn’t sent off when he left, why would there be government officials to welcome him.”On the other hand, President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s spokesperson George Charamba said his boss does not receive his subordinates at the airport when they return from trips abroad.


Charamba took to Twitter to respond to social media debate about Chiwenga’s low key arrival.“Interesting that well-known opposition twi-voices (sic) seek to teach us how to welcome and love our leaders,” he tweeted.“For the record (Mnangagwa), who is head of State and president of Zimbabwe does not – repeat – does not receive his deputy.“In the same vein, the Chinese ambassador who personifies the Chinese state here in Zimbabwe will not receive a vice president of the state to which he is accredited.“Protocol does not allow both cases.


For the record, President Mnangagwa and his deputy enjoyed daily communication while the VP was away.Mnangagwa and his wife Auxillia later visited Chiwenga at his house in Harare’s Borrowdale suburb.Regis Chikowore, a principal director in the Office of the President and Cabinet said the president was “extremely happy” to see his deputy in good health.“The president met the vice president and he was extremely happy to see his deputy in good health,” he said.Prior to his return, there were reports that Mnangagwa and Chiwenga had fallen out because of factionalism in Zanu PF.A cabinet reshuffle early this month was linked to the alleged infighting.Some Zanu PF officials were allegedly pushing for Chiwenga’s ouster on the grounds of ill health.


The VP, however, seemed to be training his guns on striking doctors and the opposition in an interview with the state controlled media soon after his arrival.He said there was no need for “others” to have the “Genghis Khan mentality.”.Khan was the founder and first Great Khan of the Mongol Empire, which became the largest contiguous empire in history after his death.“To the others, it will not help to have that Genghis Khan mentality.“

Chamisa's lawyer spoke out about Mnangagwa's fraud evidence during the election

OPPOSITION MDC leader Nelson Chamisa will launch a renewed bid to oust President Emmerson Mnangagwa by seeking to have the Constitutional Court (ConCourt) review its own judgment based on “new evidence.”.Chamisa’s lawyer Thabani Mpofu said after studying academic works on the elections published by self-exiled former minister Jonathan Moyo, they were now making efforts to have the judgment on the 2018 presidential elections set aside.The country’s top court ruled that Chamisa had failed to prove allegations of fraud during the presidential election, a vote which left the nation polarised and violence on the streets of the capital Harare.Mpofu said the basis of approaching the ConCourt was because they now believe that the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (Zec) presented to the courts false information and, therefore, their call for the judgment to be set aside.“The general rule is that once a final judgment or order has been given, the judge who gave it or any other judge of parallel juri...
