By Own Correspondent| A University of Zimbabwe political science lecturer here Eldred Masunungure has said while there was a change of leadership following the November coup which ousted former president Robert Mnangagwa, the country is still in the old order since there was no change of the system.

Professor Masunungure added that Zanu PF,is only concerned with consolidating its power instead of focusing on rebuilding the economy.

He said:

“We have to start from the premise of what happened last year. …there was change of leadership but there was no change of regime, the regime has continued, leadership change will not result in a change of systems and that explains what is happening.

Mnangagwa is just continuing from where Mugabe left. The endorsements from provinces is something that happens where there is a preoccupation in the maintenance of power, they are doing so as if everything is in order when everything is actually collapsing, we have more of the same and this definitely looks like the old.”-Daily News
