Joseph Msika

games

Vice President
Age: 84 (a year older than the ageing Mugabe)
Tribe: Shona, but raised in


 

 



 

Matabeleland so considers himself a Ndebele
History: Not originally a Zanu PF man. Instead, a prominent member of PF Zapu under Joshua Nkomo. PF Zapu was forced into unity with Zanu PF in 1987, with Msika succeeding Nkomo on his death.

Today Msika remains a deep disappointment to many people of Zimbabwe - especially those in the south. Given his position he was expected to represent the values and interests of the old PF Zapu. Once or twice he voiced feeble protests and criticisms. But otherwise he is just another Mugabe puppet.
Future: Retirement, not before time.
