This week in the Zimbabwe city of Mutare, near the Mozambican border, Zimbabwe’s ruling party Zanu-PF holds its 22nd Annual National People’s Conference amid rising suspicion and internal rifts. The meeting comes as tensions grow between President Emmerson Mnangagwa and Vice President Constantino Chiwenga  largely over the controversial ED2030 proposal, seen by many as an attempt to extend Mnangagwa’s rule beyond 2028. Alongside the politics, the party is showcasing development projects and projecting unity. The outcome could reshape both Zanu-PF’s power dynamics and Zimbabwe’s political future. Joining Peter Ndoro is political analyst and former journalist Jealousy Mawarire to unpack what’s at stake.​
