After former Vice-President Emmerson Mnangagwa was fired from the government by his longtime boss President Robert Mugabe, Zimbabweans, as usual, took to social media to share their happiness, disappointment and general views concerning the new development. Here are some of the more interesting ones:

What troubled me about Mnangagwa and his supporters was their sense of entitlement. I shed not a single tear for them

If Grace Mugabe doesnt take the VP's post herself, Mnangagwa's successor has to sleep with one eye open always and never show ambition

The Learned One is incapable of not plotting; he would explode otherwise. So, after ED who will this obsessive conspirator target next?😋😋

Ignus faatus. ED appears to be powerful, yet in reality he is not. His firing has just proved @wamagaisa #BSR spot on. @matigary
