A senior Zanu PF official has publicly criticized party members for initiating early campaigns to succeed President Emmerson Mnangagwa. Spokesperson Christopher Mutsvangwa stated that individuals with presidential ambitions should wait for the party to formally announce a vacancy, emphasizing that there is no natural successor. He reiterated that the party's recent conference unanimously adopted a resolution supporting Mnangagwa's leadership until 2030, despite the President's stated intention to conclude his term in 2028.

Mutsvangwa specifically addressed unauthorized campaigning activities, suggesting those involved should attend the party's ideology school. While not naming individuals, his comments follow reports of businessman Kudakwashe Tagwirei attracting attention through inter-district meetings. Vice-President Constantino Chiwenga is widely considered a frontrunner for the position. The party is scheduled to hold its next elective congress in 2027, ahead of the scheduled 2028 presidential election.
