Zimbabwe's governing party claims the political opposition no longer poses a significant challenge, following electoral defeats that fragmented rival groups. Zanu PF asserts Western nations, particularly America, represent the primary threat through efforts to change the existing government. The party delivered this assessment to members at its recent national conference.

The Citizens Coalition for Change has split into three factions after a disputed figure, Sengezo Tshabangu, claimed party leadership and removed elected representatives from parliament. Tshabangu controls access to state funding for political parties and has publicly praised President Emmerson Mnangagwa. Former opposition leader Nelson Chamisa abandoned the party, citing infiltration by government operatives.

Analysts suggest Zanu PF faces greater challenges from economic troubles than from weakened opposition parties. Rising prices, widespread unemployment and failing public services threaten stability more than political rivals who can be easily manipulated. Power shortages and deteriorating healthcare have pushed many citizens toward poverty and increased drug abuse among young people.
