President Emmerson Mnangagwa has said that only God had answers to the problems which the country is facing.

Speaking at the launch of the National Day of Prayer which was planned by First Lady Auxillia Mnangagwa, the president said:

“We have gathered here at State House not to celebrate the First Family, but to pray to God about the challenges we are facing because He is the only one who can solve them. When I was inaugurated as President last year, I preached for there to be peace, love, unity and harmony in the country and that is what I still preach today when I get the chance.”

Mnangagwa’s remarks come when the country’s state of affairs continues to deteriorate with analysts arguing that the standoff between the ruling ZANU PF and the opposition MDC led by Nelson Chamisa was worsening the situation.

Some of the issues bedevilling the country include shortages in cash, fuel, electricity, food and water as well as medicines, particularly in government-run medical institutions.
