Zimbabwe’s ruling Zanu-PF party wants to extend President Emerson Mnangagwa’s term in office by two years until 2030, a party spokesman has said.
He gave no details of how this could be achieved or whether constitutional changes would be sought to enable the 82-year-old Zanu-PF leader to stay on.
Zimbabwe’s constitution limits the presidential office to two five-year terms, and Mnangagwa’s second and final term as president expires in 2028.
Asked whether that meant changing the constitution to extend presidential terms to seven years, he replied: The modalities have not been decided. END.
