Source: ZANU PF Would Have Lost 2018 Elections With Mugabe As President, Says Matemadanda | ZimEye
Zanu-PF’s new national political commissar, Victor Matemadanda says ZANU PF would have lost the upcoming 2018 elections if Robert Mugabe had remained party leader.
Matemadanda was quoted during a Zanu-PF Bulawayo inter-district meeting at its Davies Hall provincial headquarters.
“Zanu-PF was going to lose the 2018 elections had we continued with the former president as our candidate,” said Matemadanda.
He continued saying, “this is largely because he (Cde Mugabe) had allowed his wife (Mrs Grace Mugabe) working in cahoots with the professor of succession (Prof Jonathan Moyo) and that dangerous boy called Tyson (Mr Saviour Kasukuwere) to destroy the party from within.
“The aspirations of the liberation struggle which we fought for can now be achieved following Operation Restore Legacy. When we fight in a revolution we don’t fight for personal glory, but for everyone and this fight should benefit the party. We want discipline in the party.
Matemadanda, quoted by the state media, then promised to re-build its structures afresh starting at cell level.

I think that he is wrong. The elections will be rigged again like they have been for the last 37 years. The results for the 2018 election are already out – Zanu had another convincing win with an experienced Rigger and Rooter in control of the counting -Mr. Mudude.
Exactly. Zimbabwe in the hands of a dictator. In this case it is the party Zanu PF that is the Culprit. They will never allow themselves to lose any election.
They would have lost , rigging or no rigging they would have lost, the issue would have been the fallout after because the army would most definitely not have stayed out of the barracks and it would have turned into a blood bath.
