President Mnangagwa reveals what General Constantino Chiwenga always tells him

President Mnangagwa reveals what General Constantino Chiwenga always tells him.VICE President Constantino Chiwenga has been urging his boss, President Emmerson Mnangagwa, to drop his soft stance and be a little bit harder including employing the tough liberation war-time tactics on political opponents,


the President himself has revealed.President Mnangagwa made the revelations on Saturday while responding to Zimbabwe Liberation War Collaborators’ Association (ZILIWACO) chairperson, Pupurai Togarepi, who had raised the issue of factionalism in Zanu-PF.“Chiwenga always tells me that I am too soft. But I always tell him that we can no longer use tactics that we used during the war. “But the truth is the truth. You don’t hunt with other people’s dogs. We need to find other ways to flush out other people’s dogs.“



And you, as war collaborators, can be our eyes and ears just like you were during the liberation struggle,” said President Mnangagwa.The ZILIWACO meeting was held at the Harare City Sports Centre yesterday, and both the President and his deputy were in attendance.Factionalism has been rearing its ugly head once again within the ruling party, with the President himself warning at a recent politburo meeting that the G40 remains stubborn and has been labelled a national security threat.Latest on diesel and petrol prices in Mnangagwa's Zimbabwe.


Diesel and petrol prices are likely to be more stable from now on after Presdent Emmerson Mnangagwa’s Government reverted to specific excise duties on these two fuels and on paraffin.This comes after several months of applying a percentage duty to ensure tax collections rose in line with inflation.The switch implies that the Government is now reasonably certain that the high level of stability seen in the exchange rate over the last two months is likely to continue and that the Zimbabwean consumer can be given modest protection against fluctuations in world oil prices and a simpler tax structure applied to fuel prices.In a statutory instrument gazetted on Wednesday,


Finance and Economic Development Minister Mthuli Ncube set the duty on petrol at $4,44 a litre and diesel and paraffin at $4,26 a litre.Since the beginning of August the duty on petrol has been 45 percent and 40 percent on diesel and paraffin.The percentages were applied to the landed cost of the fuels, that is the Zimbabwe dollar equivalent, at the interbank rate, of the cost of getting them into the country.The new fixed charges are slightly under the duty figures used by the energy regulator, the Zimbabwe Energy Regulatory Authority (ZERA),

 in its last price formula table and, so long as the exchange rate and world oil prices do not change, the prices of the three fuels could drop by a few cents per litre.But the change will be tiny as the minister set his new specific taxes at very close to what his percentage duties were last producing.Fuel imported under the permitted schemes to be legally sold retail in US dollars have attracted much higher taxes since the beginning of August, US$0,45 a litre for petrol and US$0,40 a litre for diesel and paraffin.

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...

The former First Lady ganged up with the G40 faction of ZANU-PF....
