Sources told the Zimbabwe Independent that Zimbabwe’s co-Vice Presidents Emmerson Mnangagwa and Phelekezela Mphoko, clashed over command agriculture during a cabinet meeting.
According to sources, Mphoko, complained that some ministers were only reporting to Mnangagwa and not him, highlighting that this needed to be corrected. At the time sources said:
After Mphoko complained, Obert Mpofu said sometimes the problem is that some ministers will be trying to avoid being roped into factional things, therefore they stay away from reporting. Mpoko demanded an explanation on what he was saying, but then Mpofu excused himself and asked Mugabe if he could go to the toilet. He later came back after the battle had subsided.
