Description
Zimbabwe is set to hold by-elections on 9 December, which could hand the long-ruling ZANU-PF party a supermajority in parliament, further cementing President Emmerson Mnangagwa's control over the mineral-rich nation. "My strong feeling is that they [ZANU-PF] have manipulated this electoral by-election system so much so that they are able to weed off a number of competitors that were in parliament", says political analyst Rejoice Ngwenya. ZANU-PF only needs 10 more seats to secure the two-thirds parliamentary majority needed to amend the constitution. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
