Thousands of people, including several dignitaries and foreign leaders gathered on Sunday at Harare’s national stadium for the swearing-in of Mnangagwa.
President Kagame arrived in Harare for the event, this morning.
Emmerson Mnangagwa, of the ruling ZANU-PF party, won the July 30 election with 50.8% of the vote — just enough to meet the 50% threshold needed to avoid a run-off against main opposition leader Nelson Chamisa, who scored 44.3%.
Mnangagwa pledged to “protect and promote the rights of Zimbabweans” in his oath.
The event was attended by South African President Cyril Ramaphosa‚Tanzania’s President John Magufuli, RDC’s President Joseph Kabila, Zambia’s President and Kenya’s President Uhuru Kenyatta among many others.
