Mnangagwa Rejects 2028 Elections Delay

President Emmerson Mnangagwa confirmed that Zimbabwe’s 2028 harmonized elections would proceed as scheduled, rejecting calls from some Zanu-PF members to postpone polls to 2030. Speaking at a Central Committee meeting in Harare, he urged the party to focus on preparing electoral strategies to secure victory. Analysts said his statement both reinforced constitutional limits and served as a signal to manage internal party divisions over term extensions.
