Chamisa chides Mnangagwa

Everson Mushava ·

MDC-T vice-president Nelson Chamisa has claimed that the opposition backed the military-led “Operation Restore Legacy” to ensure the emergence of a “weaker and easy-to-defeat” leader in the form of President Emmerson Mnangagwa.

Speaking at a Sapes Trust discussion on Thursday, Chamisa said it was for strategic reasons that the MDC-T supported the ouster of former President Robert Mugabe through military intervention as the 93-year-old veteran politician was a “tough nut to crack” when it came to elections.

He also vowed the MDC-T would block attempts by Mnangagwa to either bring forward or delay the 2018 elections.
