President Mnangagwa will only serve one term in office if
he wins in the impending election, according to his daughter..
“He knows that mistakes were made in the past and in many
ways he is the one who is in the best position to put them right,” Farai
Mnangagwa Mlotshwa told The Independent. “He will serve for just one term, but
the country is in a very difficult position at the moment, and he is the right
man for the job. He has been around for a long time and has the experience that
is needed.”
On why her father did not make his move against Mr Mugabe
much earlier? “No, there is a time for everything, it happened when it did. I
think most people agree we need to look forward now. We think that Zanu-PF are
going to win this election, but there are problems to solve for the government.
The economy is the biggest one,” said Ms Mnangagwa Mlotshwa, who was in the
country’s diplomatic service before starting a real-estate business.
“Yes, one can talk about a young candidate being
motivational for people of that age, I am 42 myself. But I can think of plenty
of other 40-year-olds who would make better candidates than Nelson Chamisa. He
offers no solutions, just criticism, he treats people with disrespect. There
are doubts about his character. I think there will be a lot of uncertainty if
he comes to power,” she said.
