Zimbabwe’s ruling party said it resolved to extend the tenure of President Emmerson Mnangagwa by another two years until 2030, and ordered the government to take the necessary legal steps to enact the decision.
Ziyambi Ziyambi, the Zimbabwe African Union-Patriotic Front’s secretary for legal affairs, said the move was taken to “ensure continuity, stability and sustained transformation of the nation.” He was speaking at Zanu-PF’s annual conference, which is being held in the eastern border town of Mutare.
