Crocodiles, Lacoste
shirts, DNA tests and accusations of stealing underwear and radios.
Sniping around these
topics highlights the intensifying battles in Zimbabwes faction-ridden
ruling party over who will
succeed President Robert
Mugabe, in power for 36
years.
Mugabe, the worlds
oldest head of state, recently warned officials of
his ZANU-PF party to stop
insulting each other.
A lot of the bitter quarrels, which come ahead of
Mugabes 92nd birthday on
Feb. 21, happen on Twitter
and other social media
platforms, providing Zimbabweans with a stream of
nasty, colorful and sometimes entertaining quips
that would have been unthinkable not long ago.
None of Mugabes current close allies has challenged his rule, which began with independence
from white rule in 1980
and has been marked by
economic hardship and
contentious relations with
the West. The disputes
within the ruling party are
the result of Mugabes
failure to groom an obvious
successor, said Gabriel
Shumba, a human rights
lawyer and chairman of the
South Africa-based Zimbabwe Exiles Forum.
