So a bunch of religious leaders just backed a president for life, basically. The National Multi-Faith for Economic Dialogue, a coalition with apostles, spirit mediums, and traditional healers, says it fully supports President Emmerson Mnangagwa staying in power past 2030. Their chief convener, Obey Mapuranga, claims all ten provinces in Zimbabwe agreed to this after nationwide talks, praising the president's economic policies and rural social services.

Mapuranga called their endorsement a divine affirmation from the religious community. He urged the Zanu PF party and government to accept this resolution as a legitimate push for current policies and a presidential term extension. This follows Zanu PF's own internal resolution last October to keep Mnangagwa in office until 2030.

The Namfed statement framed this move as a strategic ecumenical position aligned with Zimbabwe's national Vision 2030 goals. Mapuranga pledged the coalition's readiness to work with what they term the second republic, aiming to inject a spirit of unity and integrity into every government policy and project. They presented their endorsement as reinforcing the legitimacy and urgency of the existing political direction.
