Zimbabwe’s president Emmerson Mnangagwa has publicly thanked the people of Zimbabwe for being in support of recent coup that saw him replacing Robert Mugabe as the president.

Mnangagwa hailed Zimbabweans for the good work done yesterday on Wednesday, 28th march as he was addressing Zanu-PF supporters at Nyamhunga stadium in Kariba.

Speaking to the supporters of his party, Mngangagwa thanked the Zimbabweans for being peaceful and implored everyone to remain united.

He pleaded with other political parties to commit themselves to non-violence

He said, “I thank you all. I thank our people at home, our people in the urban areas that you managed a transition that could have easily exploded into a huge disastrous conflict but it was a transition with the blessings of the All Mighty, with the blessings of our ancestors.

“And we should say let us remain united. Let us love each other. Let us move forward and I plead all political parties to commit themselves to non-violence.

“As a result of that I have said our elections are going to be free, transparent and credible because we are united.”
