New claims say First Lady Auxillia Mnangagwa tried to kill her husband, President Emmerson Mnangagwa of Zimbabwe. These shocking reports come as fights inside the ruling ZANU-PF party keep getting worse. The government already faces many problems, and these claims make everything even shakier.
The story began when President Mnangagwa fired General Anselem Sanyatwe on March 27, 2025. Nobody knew exactly why Sanyatwe lost his job as commander of the Presidential Guard. People started talking right away because Sanyatwe had strong connections to military leaders. Security sources say Mnangagwa removed him because he knew about plans to kill the President - plans that supposedly came from people close to him, including his wife.
Security officials claim Auxillia Mnangagwa asked some military officers to help her remove the President. This news shocked everyone in the government. Opposition leaders and experts say this shows just how bad things have become among Zimbabwe's top officials. Tendai Magaya, who studies politics, called it clear proof of power fights within ZANU-PF and the government.
If these claims turn out to be true, Zimbabwe would enter new territory. Questions arise about how stable the government really is and what role the military plays. Presidential Spokesperson George Charamba rejected all these claims. He called them lies meant to create problems among leaders. Several other high-ranking military officers lost their jobs recently, making more people think there might be a split between the military and the government.
Some experts believe President Mnangagwa has tried to strengthen his power. He seems worried about the same military group that helped him take over from Robert Mugabe back in 2017. Sanyatwe played a big part in that change of power. Reports say he grew less trusting of how much influence the First Lady had over government matters. The President may have fired him to stop possible threats from inside the security teams.
People who work in security say they watch everything more carefully now. They started looking into whether anyone really planned to kill the President. One military worker said tension runs high among security forces. The claim might sound far-fetched, but leaders feel very nervous. President Mnangagwa faces money problems across the country, unhappy citizens, and growing problems in his party.
His grip on power looks weaker than before. If more people start believing the claims about the First Lady, things could get much worse. New power struggles might start within ZANU-PF and the military. Dr. Nkululeko Sibanda, another political expert, warns that President Mnangagwa must act carefully. Zimbabwe has seen many political betrayals throughout its history.
The President might find fewer allies if these claims contain any truth. As people across Zimbabwe watch these events, nobody knows what happens next for Mnangagwa and his presidency. Whether this story turns out to be just rumors or shows real problems at the top, one thing remains certain - political drama continues in Zimbabwe.
