Mnangagwa, G40 fight turns uglier

The nasty succession brawl between two of the post congress Zanu-PF's factions that are linked to Vice President Emmerson Mnangagwa and the party's ambitious Young Turks who are known as the Generation 40 group, is getting uglier by the day.

Well placed Zanu-PF sources yesterday said that G40, who apparently enjoy the support of President Robert Mugabe's increasingly influential wife, Grace and the country's other VP, Phelekezela Mphoko were now even more determined and doing everything in their power to scupper Mnangagwa's chances of succeeding Mugabe.
