President Mnangagwa kicked out his top army leader and made him run sports instead. He moved Lieutenant General Anselem Sanyatwe away from military power after Kirsty Coventry left to head the Olympic Committee. This move heated the fight inside Zimbabwe's ruling party. Sanyatwe strongly supports Vice President Chiwenga, making this change look personal.
The army helped Mnangagwa grab power back in 2017 when they forced old President Mugabe to leave. Vice President Chiwenga, who used to command soldiers himself, led that takeover. Many believe he wants to become president next. Some party members are pushing for Mnangagwa to quit before the next big vote in 2028.
Experts say Mnangagwa fears the military might turn against him just like they turned against Mugabe. He keeps moving loyal army friends away from power positions to stay safe. War hero Blessed Geza keeps asking people to march against the government on March 31. The police banned all weapons in the capital city because they worry about fights.
Police and soldiers patrol the streets across Zimbabwe to prevent problems before they start. The government monitors social media for anyone planning trouble. Many citizens worry about where their country will go as different leaders grab for control. Regular people just want peace and better living conditions instead of endless power games.
