A political analyst Butler Tambo  has claimed that President Robert Mugabe will run for presidency in 2018 and win to run the country till 2019 before handing over his wife Grace in the next congress of the party.

Zanu PF provinces have since endorsed Mugabe as their only candidate for 2018 [presidential elections amid concerns from critics who say his health condition and age are a cause for concern such that he is no longer fit to run a country.

Tambo said his analysis of the 2014 Zanu PF Congress was spot on then except for the abolition of post of Chairman.

"What I now foresee is that come 2018 President R.G.Mugabe will run his last election in what i will term a "Hand Over Election" which he will win "resoundingly" and run the country till 2019 when the party has its next elective Congress and at this particular Congress Dr Amai Grace Mugabe will take over leadership of the party and the country and run it till the 2023 election.Anyone wanting to bet on this one," Tambo said.

 In 2014 Tambo had said, "My final Analysis of Congress line up of Presidium-Cde.Robert Gabriel Mugabe for President and First Secretary of Zanu PF and President of Zimbabwe.Cde. Emmerson Dambudzo Mnangagwa and Cde.Phelekezela Report Mphoko for Vice Presidents and Cde.Jacob Mudenda for Chairman.Anyone interested in bating on this one."
