Former President Robert Mugabe’s son, Robert Junior has reportedly set his eyes on contesting for the Zvimba West Legislative seat in the upcoming 2023 elections to secure power in his rural home.
Highly placed sources told the reporter that plans for him to contest for the seat are already in motion. The seat is currently held by the Minister of Justice, Legal and Parliamentary Affairs Ziyambi Ziyambi.
But sources said Ziyambi is expected to give up the seat to Mugabe as he will be elevated to a senator.
“Mugabe is expected to contest for Zvimba West Constituency in 2023. Ziyambi Ziyambi is expected to give up the seat and be elevated to a senator to pave the way for Mugabe. The plans are already in motion. Soon the former President’s son will be familiarised with structures to prepare him to contest for the seat, “ said the source who refused to be named.
Efforts to get a comment from Zanu PF spokesperson Christopher Mutsvangwa were fruitless as his phone was not going through by the time of publishing.
The reports come after Mugabe publicly declared himself to be a “son of Zanu PF” yesterday at a rally in Chitungwiza and revealed that he was keen to continue with his father’s legacy.
“It’s like the family’s tradition. Since I was born all I know was Zanu PF. I am a Zanu PF child born in Zanu PF so it’s only right that I continue the legacy,” said Robert.
The move will likely unify President Mnangagwa with the Mugabe’s who developed frosty relations after Operation Restore Legacy which led to the removal of former President Robert Mugabe from power.
Since 2017, President Mnangagwa has allowed the Mugabe’s to keep hold of their wealth which includes “9 farms”, properties that were registered under Zanu PF and several business interests according to reports. He also facilitated for the former first lady Grace Mugabe to get government benefits for her service.

The Importance of Renewable Energy for Future Generations
Renewable energy has become one of the most important solutions for addressing climate change and reducing environmental pollution. Traditional energy sources such as coal, oil, and natural gas contribute significantly to greenhouse gas emissions and global warming. Renewable energy technologies offer cleaner alternatives that support long-term environmental sustainability.
Solar power, wind energy, hydroelectric systems, and geothermal energy are among the most widely used renewable energy sources today. These technologies generate electricity with significantly lower carbon emissions compared to fossil fuels. Many countries are investing heavily in renewable infrastructure to reduce dependence on imported fuels and improve energy security.
Renewable energy also creates economic opportunities through job creation and technological innovation. Engineers, construction workers, technicians, and researchers are increasingly employed in renewable energy industries worldwide. Developing countries are using solar systems and mini-grid technologies to expand electricity access in rural communities.
Despite its advantages, renewable energy still faces challenges such as infrastructure costs, battery storage limitations, and inconsistent energy production during certain weather conditions. However, advances in technology continue improving efficiency and reducing costs associated with clean energy systems.
Experts believe renewable energy will play a critical role in protecting future generations from environmental damage and supporting sustainable economic growth. International cooperation and continued investment in clean technology are essential for building a more environmentally responsible future.
