The army just put retired general Anselem Nhamo Sanyatwe into government as the new Minister of Sports, Recreation, Arts, and Culture. He took the oath recently at a ceremony where he became part of the official cabinet. Many people raised questions about why he stepped down from military service right before this happened.
Critics believe the government planned his retirement as a clever move against protesters. They say his absence from military leadership aims to weaken the upcoming March 31 movement by removing a key figure from the command structure. The timing seemed carefully arranged to many observers who watch political developments closely.
After the swearing-in ceremony, Sanyatwe told reporters he was thankful for his new job running the ministry and appeared happy with his quick transition from military duties to political office. The former general will oversee all national sports programs, cultural activities, and artistic development across the country.
