Zanu PF factions push rule changes to align with constitution

Internal factions within Zanu PF are demanding a rulebook overhaul to match Zimbabwe's constitutional amendments, particularly the removal of presidential term limits. The Daily News reported that party elders fear the current structure concentrates power in the presidency. The pushback comes as President Mnangagwa signals interest in extending his tenure beyond 2028. Without rule changes, Zanu PF risks a leadership crisis that could fracture the party ahead of elections. The core vulnerability: the party's internal divisions threaten its electoral dominance.
