A political analyst Save Mawarire has predicted that MDC-T leader Morgan Tsvangirai will emerge as a winner in the 2018 presidential poll followed by President Robert Mugabe and former Vice President Joice Mujuru landing on the third position.
"I see 3 possible scenarios in 2018 Presidential vote. Morgan Tsvangirai gets majority vote but shy of the 50% +1 vote threshold, Mugabe comes second and Joice Mujuru third," said Mawarire.
"Under this scenario Joice Mujuru can back Morgan Tsvangirai in a run off and they form a coalition government."
He said if Mugabe wins the vote and fall shy of the 50%+1 vote, Tsvangirai comes second and Mujuru third, Mujuru will back Mugabe in a coalition government.
