PRESIDENT MNANGAGWA’S ANCESTOR WAS PART OF KING LOBENGULA’S NDEBELE ARMY

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------




Nqobile Tshili, nqobile.tshili@chronicle.co.zw

VICE President Dr Constantino Chiwenga has said one of President Mnangagwa’s
ancestors was one of the Ndebele warriors who resoundingly defeated colonial
forces led by Major Allan Wilson at the Battle of Pupu in 1893.

VP Chiwenga made the revelation when he was introducing President Mnangagwa to a
huge crowd that had gathered for the official commissioning of the memorial
site.

“I’m so pleased to introduce our guest of honour the President of Zimbabwe Cde,
Dr Mnangagwa. Let me say a few things that relate to our guests of honour.

“President Mnangagwa’s great grandfather Muvengo was part of the Ndebele
warriors and was part of the amabutho who fought in the Pupu Battle,” said VP
Chiwenga



He said the people of Zimbabwe fought British encroachment as one force.

“Those who will visit this centre will understand that the people of Zimbabwe
have never fought in disintegration. Whites would want to project Zimbabwean
struggle along tribal lines yet it is not the case,” he said.

VP Chiwenga called for the preservation of culture saying there is proof that
the traditional systems worked.

He said the President is a symbol of strength and resistance in leading the
country.

The Vice President said the Pupu Battlefield Memorial Site commissioning is an
opportunity to tell the correct Zimbabwean history.
