#MnangagwaVersusChiwenga
#WhoWillBlinkFirstThisTime?
The explosive political landscape in Zimbabwe is getting increasingly intense, with President Emmerson Mnangagwa and Vice President Constantino Chiwenga locked in a high-stakes power struggle brinkmanship. 
At the heart of the intensifying contenstation is Mnangagwa's current bid for a third term in office under disguise, which has been met with bold resistance from Chiwenga and his military-backed Zanu PF faction.
Chiwenga, who is seen as the likely successor to Mnangagwa when his second term ends in 2028, has been quietly building an alliance within the military and the ruling Zanu PF to stop his boss from extending his rule beyond his 2028 second term constitutional limit.
The military, an influential power broker in Zimbabwean politics, has made it clear in its structures that they will not support Mnangagwa's third term ambitions.
The situation has been further complicated by the involvement of the militant war veterans, who at the weekend demanded Mnangagwa's immediate resignation. 
The ex-combatants, who played a crucial role in Zimbabwe's liberation struggle, have accused Mnangagwa of failing to deliver on his promises and of being "not fit to run this country" amid corruption, nepotism and incompetence charges.
Mnangagwa, however, has denied any intentions of seeking a third term, stating he is committed to upholding the constitution, while claiming to be a "constitutionalist" even though he first came to office through a coup in November 2017.
Despite this, political tensions between Mnangagwa and Chiwenga remain palpable, with many Zimbabweans fearing the potential consequences of this deadly succession power struggle.
As the situation continues to unfold, one thing is clear: the future of Zimbabwean politics hangs in the balance, and the outcome of this brinkmanship will have serious and far-reaching implications for the country.
