Just as the late former President Robert Mugabe was assisted to resign from power by the military during the 2017 coup, former Zanu-PF political commissar and 2023 presidential aspirant Saviour Kasukuwere has launched a fresh attack on President Emmerson Mnangagwa, declaring that the 83-year-old leader’s “time is up” and warning that if he does not step down voluntarily, “we will assist him.”

In a seven-hour private conversation in the presidential suite, Mugabe tells Kasukuwere, then the Zanu PF political commissar, that he planned to retire at the ZANU PF extra-ordinary Congress in December that year 2017 and he wanted Sydney Sekeramayi to take over from him.
