Former legislator Temba Mliswa challenged presidential spokesperson George Charamba to a physical confrontation after an online dispute. Mliswa responded to threats from an account using Charamba's name, saying he has martial arts training. The former Norton representative announced his presidential ambitions and stated that he no longer seeks ministerial appointments or legislative seats. He accused social media accounts of spreading false information and manipulating public opinion.
Mliswa affirmed support for President Emmerson Mnangagwa and Vice President Constantino Chiwenga. He described his criticism of leaders as constructive rather than personal attacks. Charamba previously denied controlling the social media account that posted threatening messages toward Mliswa. The confrontation reflects growing divisions among government supporters and former politicians.
