Ambassador-at-Large and Presidential Envoy to America and Europe, Prophet Uebert Angel, has declared his allegiance to President Emmerson Mnangagwa, saying he belongs to the Zanu PF faction aligned with the Head of State and will not be swayed by shifting political alliances.

In a post on X, Angel said his political position had never been ambiguous, openly describing himself as a Mnangagwa loyalist amid ongoing factional tensions within the ruling party.

“If there are factions within the party, of which I know none, I have made my position clear: I belong to the President. My allegiance is to Emmerson Dambudzo Mnangagwa,” he said.

Angel said his support for Mnangagwa was based on his convictions about leadership, economic transformation and Zimbabwe’s development, rather than political convenience or personal relationships.

He defended the President’s record, citing economic growth, agricultural production, mining, infrastructure development and export performance as evidence of progress under the current administration.

Angel claimed that Zimbabwe recorded 8.1 per cent economic growth in 2025, compared with 1.1 per cent in South Africa and 3.8 per cent in Zambia, citing World Bank figures.

He also pointed to reported growth in agriculture, mining and manufacturing, as well as merchandise exports estimated at US$10.2 billion, arguing that the country was making progress towards economic transformation.

On infrastructure, Angel cited the commissioning of Hwange Units 7 and 8, which added 600 megawatts to electricity generation capacity, the rehabilitation of the Harare-Beitbridge Highway, and airport expansion projects.

However, he acknowledged that economic growth must translate into improved living standards, saying Zimbabwe still faced challenges that needed to be addressed.

Angel also said he would not participate in activities that undermine Mnangagwa, adding that his support was rooted in his belief that political stability and peace were essential for attracting investment and promoting economic prosperity.

He said he supported the President’s vision of industrialising the country, diversifying exports, creating employment, and moving Zimbabwe up the global value chain.

“I am proud of Zimbabwe, proud of its potential and unapologetic about the leadership I support,” Angel said.

He concluded by reaffirming his allegiance to Mnangagwa, declaring, “One President. One vision. One Zimbabwe.”

Angel’s declaration of his allegiance to President Emmerson Mnangagwa comes after a series of videos by former Norton legislator Temba Mliswa accusing the preacher of siding with Vice President Constantino Chiwenga’s faction.
