Zimbabwean President Emmerson Mnangagwa has suggested a potential cabinet reshuffle in 2025, amidst internal divisions within the ruling Zanu PF party over the possibility of extending his tenure beyond 2028. While Mnangagwa has stated he will adhere to his constitutional mandate ending in 2028, the 'ED2030' slogan advocating for his continued leadership has sparked controversy. Critics within Zanu PF argue the focus on this slogan overshadows pressing issues such as corruption, economic stagnation, and poverty. The reshuffle is seen as an opportunity for Mnangagwa to solidify his power by marginalizing dissenters.
PRESIDENT Emmerson Mnangagwa has signalled the possibility of a cabinet reshuffle in 2025 amid Zanu PF divisions over the extension of his tenure beyond 2028.
Critics within Zanu PF argue that the focus on the slogan masks underlying challenges, including corruption, inefficiency, and economic stagnation whilst the ordinary citizens wallow in abject poverty. Mnangagwa has reshuffled his cabinet multiple times in recent years, often citing the need for efficiency.
"We must look at that and say this was my team, this is the team that has delivered our vision. Or does it require interrogating it? And are you going forward with that team like you were saying? No, I can't release it now, I'll make my statement after January 1, 2025.
