his patience and cunning, mr mnangagwa has been posing as agent of change even though he was robert mugabe'sy for about 50 years. despite mr mugabe's eleventh—hour denunciation, emmerson emerged victorious — and bloodshed returned to the streets of harare. vincent, does this result suggest that despite all those years working for robert mugabe, being at the heart of the regime, the former security minister, that he has convinced enough zimbabweans that he can be the agent of change? well, i don't think that if zanu—pf was to win it would not be because of mnangagwa, it would be for the political dynamics of zimbabwe, where you find zanu—pf are still the historical type of party, cares about the land issues and so on, whereas the mdc are seen as liberal, town people, white farmers and so on. if zanu—pf was to win, it would be more because of those reasons more than anything else. but i don't think we can really know who has won. my problem is that mdc, i think, committed a very graphic mistake. they should not have gone into these elections, just because mugabe has gone, the mere fact of taki

this election is going to be very critical after the election after november last year we had robert mugabe mugabe who was very poor allies if you go on the one side. and on the leg the late morgan trying right now both guys are north there but at the same time when mugabe was solidly bought by zanu p.f. under this this state institutions trying gray was seen to be bucked and propped by external forces particularly the european union and the waste now where we are at the moment zimbabwe is a basically just trying to find a way of coming in between so really this peaceful. course of action i should of course illusion if you like is this electoral process and that's why it's extremely important that whatever happens over the next two days that we have results which hopefully is accepted book by both sides what's interesting though is on a p.f. issued a press statement to give a press conference might a short while ago in which they were not really calling for calm but actually showing and extending a hand of friendship to the opposition i think extremely one of the chamisa and women and i don

well absolutely if you think back thirty seven years of robert mugabe the person who ran the country for such a long period ended last year when the military intervened then the current president went and got what took over his former vice president and this election was of course a milestone for the country for the first time there was a good chance for free and fair elections in zimbabwe the question is can we really talk of free and fair election here we have had several statements from several election of service some are saying yes tendency others also from the european union they were much more critical but nobody really had a final statement nobody can really say if we really saw a completely fail action hero if they were wrecked on not this is a process that still has to be looked into and still probably take some time until we really can make a fair judgment of that and i mean you know briefly if you can what does emerson now have to do to win the support of his critics. well he has to try to unite the country has to bring the other side also in the bow this will be his majo

for his patience and cunning, mr mnangagwa has been posing as agent of change even though he was robert mugabelose ally for more than 50 years. despite mr mugabe's eleventh hour denunciation, emmerson mnangagwa emerged victorious — and bloodshed returned to the streets of harare. do you think he has convinced enough zimbabweans that he can be the agent to check? if zanu pf was to wind it would not be for mnangagwa, it would be for the dynamics of zimbabwe, where they historical party cares about the land issues and so on, whereas the opposition... but i don't think we can really know who has won, but my problem is that mdc, probably made a very graphic mistake, they should not have gone into these elections just because mugabe has gone, it did not take away issues to do with the independent electoral commission. we saw what the police did, shooting people and so on. so, this should have insisted that if we are to take pa rt have insisted that if we are to take part in these elections, these are theissues part in these elections, these are the issues that must be determined, if not... so they s

iwas there when robert mugabe fell and there when robert mugabe fell and there seems such amazing optimismra and then we saw the tragic deaths of these six people. and soldiers on the streets with live ammunition. it's an illustration of the fact elections don't solve things in the way people often na vely hoped, having a big popular vote. it doesn't make people necessarily come together because they dispute the results, especially when you have questions about the fairness and corruption of the process, as we have had in zimbabwe. robert mugabe going was definitely a huge moment, obviously, having been there for 30 years, a brutal, repressive dictator. you have to be hopeful for something after that will be positive. is an interesting piece by the africa expert who said he was part of the group was lobbied strongly to say don't have elections but a power—sharing agreement first. these things where institutions are not developed, can make things worse. that prognosis seems be borne out by what we see on the ground in zimbabwe this week. do you think the future will at least be better than

rural areas that said so people in urban areas also may be seeing him or something different from robert mugabe a lot of people we spoke to use during voting there would say things like. but if someone new in charge let's give them a chance he still has international goodwill maybe that could help people invest in the country and create jobs which a lot of people really really need what we saw just before the final announcement was the opposition some of them are winter from the cameras and started shouting and screaming saying they want to accept this result these results have been rigged and they're not happy with the fact that. gore's going to win the police been. on them drag them are. saying that the current basically gone from the cameras and because it is illegal so what will the opposition do we have two options one could be to go to courts they say they have evidence according to their own private results in tallies they say nelson chamisa the main opposition leader has won this election they say they have evidence haven't yet told observers the media or the barwon people what the evid

yeah robert mugabe in his last interview that long rambling one before the election kind of said he would support me so he wouldn't support going to gaga that might have been a poison chalice for jimmy's but i'm sure they're not very well and they did send the representative of the family for nelson jimmy i think the party or would have been disappointed if he'd gone ahead to do that and i would also think that they really haven't decided what they want to do yet so it's a gesture of disappointment look i think most analysts have said that really the m.d.c. has won every election since two thousand why should they feel that this one was any different and they've been denied and the constitutional court is not a neutral court the zick was you know the military was behind it in many ways and in any case it was it was a very very close election and when you're talking about the sec even having to change the results three times so that they end up with fifty zero point six nine percent instead of the fifty point zero eight it indicates that there was a fairly incompetent body running that ele
