A leader in the opposition Movement for Democratic Change (MDC), Job \u2018Wiwa\u2019 Sikhala has vowed to deal with President Emmerson Mnangagwa for meddling in the internal affairs of the party.<\/p>\n

Speaking on Thursday, Sikhala said that President Mnangagwa was behind the recalls of MDC legislators from Parliament, a scenario which the Zengeza West MP said was meant to weaken the opposition party. He said:<\/p>\n

\n

We are going to deal with him (Mnangagwa) and this is not an empty threat. Do I look like somebody who is joking?<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\n

Look at my face and tell me that I\u2019m joking. Do you think I can leave my wife and son home to come here and make empty threats?<\/p>\n

I know what will happen when we decide to cause pandemonium in the country. You have been clamouring for this and we are now going to give it to you in abundance. Watch the space.
\nSikhala was in 2019 arrested for vowing to overthrow the government before 2023. He, later, denied saying his party intended to overthrow the government adding that he meant that socio-economic ills such as hunger were the issues he said needed to be overthrown.
\nIn 2019, scores of people were arrested for intending to \u201csubvert a constitutionally established government.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
