Mnangagwa Issues Chilling Warning To Zanu PF Members Over Social Media Abuse
By A Correspondent
President Emmerson Mnangagwa has strongly condemned the misuse of social media platforms by Zanu PF members to air the party’s internal issues, calling for an immediate halt to the practice.
His remarks came during the 380th Ordinary Session of the Politburo, held at the Revolutionary Party HQ in Harare on Thursday.
Mnangagwa acknowledged that some members of his party had been using social media to expose internal divisions and conflicts, which he described as damaging to the party’s unity and reputation.
“This habit of using social media to attack the party must stop with immediate effect,” Mnangagwa said firmly. “Such behaviour is unacceptable.”
The Zanu PF leader emphasized the importance of maintaining discipline within the party and adhering to its constitution, making it clear that internal disputes should be resolved within the party structures rather than on public platforms.
“Those who are doing it, spit on the ground and never do it again,” Mnangagwa added, sending a stern message to party members who have been engaging in such behavior. “Every party member must adhere to the party constitution.”
The comments come amidst rising tensions within Zanu PF, where internal divisions have been increasingly evident. Social media, often a space for public debate, has become a battleground for party members to express their discontent, contributing to the deepening rift at the top levels of the ruling party.
Mnangagwa’s call to restore discipline within Zanu PF is seen as an effort to regain control over the party’s narrative and prevent further damage to its image.
However, his statement also raises questions about how the party intends to address the underlying issues fueling such public outbursts.
With political infighting growing, Mnangagwa’s warning signals a tough stance on party loyalty and unity in the face of mounting internal challenges.
