Leaves Zanu PF Heavyweights Fuming<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Tinashe Sambiri\u2013 Controversial Zanu PF politician and businessman Killer Zivhu on Friday sparked fresh debate within political circles after publicly praising exiled former ruling party national political commissar Saviour Kasukuwere.<\/p>\n<p>Zivhu\u2019s remarks, which quickly circulated on social media, are widely expected to anger some senior Zanu PF officials, particularly at a time when tensions are already rising within the ruling party.<\/p>\n<p>In a message directed at Kasukuwere, who has been living outside Zimbabwe following his fallout with the party leadership, Zivhu described him as a fearless figure who cannot easily be intimidated.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cChirandu, hamubvunduki masango, nyuchi, nzunzi, tsetse fly kana vunyunyu, tekairai murunyararo gono remasango,\u201d Zivhu said.<br \/>The Shona message loosely translates to a tribute portraying Kasukuwere as a brave and resilient individual who is not shaken by danger or obstacles.<br \/>Kasukuwere, once a powerful figure within Zanu PF, fell out with the ruling party leadership during the political upheaval that led to the removal of former president Robert Mugabe in 2017.<\/p>\n<p>Since then, he has remained outside the country but continues to feature in Zimbabwe\u2019s political discussions.<\/p>\n<p>Zivhu\u2019s comments come at a sensitive time as debate intensifies over the proposed constitutional amendment bill, which has triggered divisions and heated discussions within political and legal circles.<br \/>Political observers say Zivhu\u2019s public praise of Kasukuwere may further inflame tensions within the ruling party, particularly among influential figures who remain critical of the former commissar.<\/p>\n<p>Despite being in exile, Kasukuwere has continued to attract attention in Zimbabwean politics, with speculation occasionally surfacing about his possible political ambitions.<\/p>\n<p>Zivhu, who is known for his outspoken and sometimes controversial political statements, has not elaborated further on his remarks.<\/p>\n<p>However, his comments have already stirred discussion among party supporters and critics alike, adding another layer to the ongoing debate within Zanu PF.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t<span id=\"wordads-inline-marker\" style=\"display: none;\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h3
