PRESIDENT Emmerson Mnangagwa says he can’t continue to stomach garbage filled urban centers – a situation he said can only be corrected by kicking out the opposition from the authorities in next month’s elections.
Addressing Zanu- PF supporters after commissioning the US$153 million refurbished Robert Gabriel Mugabe lnternational Airport Friday.
Mnangagwa urged Harare residents to kick out the opposition saying they had failed to run councils.
“Our towns and cities are full of garbage. This time around, kick them out,” he said.
The ruling party has so far snapped up a number of local authority seats in some areas where the CCC party failed to file nomination papers for their candidates.
Mnangagwa also warned foreign Western countries to desist from interfering with the country’s elections.
“No one will teach us democracy. We are more qualified to those countries’ democracy. We think African and
we do not poke our noses into their pockets. Let me warn them that one day, we will burn those noses,” Mnangagwa said.
Referring to the upcoming elections, he further said, “This interference is unacceptable. Those countries must not interfere with our elections.
“Their elections are full of faults and issues such as fighting and pretence on democratic knowledge. They must not come here to teach us anything.
“We will not allow that,” he added.
