Mnangagwa is power hungry

South Africa Headlines News

South Africa Latest News, South Africa Headlines

Mnangagwa, who took over from Robert Mugabe with the assistance of the military in 2017, has just reappointed Chief Justice Luke Malaba, who was due for retirement after reaching the cut-off age of 70.

An application to challenge the amendments and Malaba’s reappointment was filed at the high court in Harare this week by the Young Lawyers’ Association of Zimbabwe and liberation war veteran Frederick Mutanda.The other amendments, which were officially gazetted earlier this month, include the dropping of a clause on running mates and elected vice-presidents.The new provisions also pave the way for extending nonparliamentary Cabinet appointments from five to seven.

“The consolidation of power for the president has become too much, because the top judges and the chief justice are now at [his] mercy,” said Chikoromu. Some senior officials within the ruling Zanu-PF party say Mnangagwa is pre-empting a potential fall-out with his current deputy, the retired General Constantino Chiwenga, who they believe is angling to take over from him.The continually shrinking democratic space and the continued attacks on the rule of law are very worrying.
