BREAKING: Chiwenga Meets Military Generals In Secret Plot To Remove Mnangagwa — Themba Mliswa Drops Bombshell Statement
🚨 BREAKING — This story is developing. Refresh for updates.
Zimbabwe is on edge after outspoken politician Themba Mliswa released a bombshell public statement revealing a clandestine gathering of senior military officials — a meeting he says was focused on him and was followed by a visit to Vice President Constantino Chiwenga's residence.
The explosive revelation has ignited fresh speculation about internal power struggles within ZANU-PF and the military establishment, just as tensions between President Mnangagwa and VP Chiwenga continue to simmer beneath the surface.
🗣️ THEMBA MLISWA'S FULL STATEMENT
"I have been reliably informed of a clandestine gathering that took place two days ago, involving several high-ranking military officials, at which I was a focal point of discussion. The meeting attendees later visited the VP's place."
"Their discontent primarily revolves around my continued public denunciations of specific acts of misconduct, abuse of office and even dereliction of duty attributed to the Vice President. We are acutely aware of these and other political covert convenings among military personnel which are clearly informed by subversive agendas."
"It's essential to recognize that the Vice President has transitioned into a political role; thus, it is entirely within the rights of the public to scrutinize his conduct as a public official. In the realm of politics, no individual is insulated from the critical examinations warranted by their status as public servants."
"His current endeavor to diminish the efforts of his own party through insinuations that the country lacks 'one man, one vote' exemplifies the detrimental effects of his recent actions, as he now finds himself assuming the role of an internal opposition."
"This stance places him in direct conflict with numerous party resolutions and initiatives. Such actions do not require nostalgic reflections on one's illustrious past, but rather a straightforward call for adherence to party discipline and directives."
📌 WHAT THIS MEANS
Political analysts say Mliswa's statement is one of the most direct public accusations of military interference in civilian politics Zimbabwe has seen in recent years. The fact that generals allegedly visited Chiwenga's residence after the meeting raises serious questions about the separation of the military from partisan politics.
Chiwenga, a former military commander who played a central role in the 2017 coup that removed Robert Mugabe, has long been viewed as a powerful force within ZANU-PF. His relationship with President Mnangagwa has been the subject of intense speculation, with many observers noting growing tensions between the two.
Mliswa's willingness to name names and go public with this information signals an escalation in the political battle — one that could have major consequences for Zimbabwe's stability ahead of the next election cycle.
