Zimbabwe faces growing unrest as President Mnangagwa plans to extend his leadership beyond his second term, which ends in 2028. Former liberation fighters have called for nationwide protests tomorrow to remove him from office. These veterans want Deputy President Constantino Chiwenga to take charge, saying Mnangagwa has failed to fix the country's broken economy.

The current situation looks very similar to what happened in 2017 when Robert Mugabe lost power. Back then, Chiwenga led that change as the head of the military. Professor Ricky Mukonza from TUT explains that anyone with military connections holds real power in Zimbabwe.

Mukonza points out that Deputy President Chiwenga ran the army for many years and maintains strong influence there. He believes the most important question remains unanswered: Who actually controls the military forces right now?

The political crisis continues to develop as citizens prepare for possible major changes in leadership. Many observers are watching closely to see if history will repeat itself through another military-backed transition of power in the troubled nation.
