摘要

The Mugabe family loves a good punch-up. The old man, Robert, Zimbabwe's president, has always been a brawler, though a sly and eloquent one. His specialism is to set up ambitious underlings in the ruling Zanu-PF party to fight so that he can eventually chide them for factionalism and push aside the likely winner, perpetually eliminating potential rivals. The system has worked well since he took over the party in 1975. Aged 90 now, he still commands the stage. His wife, Grace, is a chip off the old block. Aged 49, she recently started a punch-up unlike any the party has seen, forgoing the subtle ambiguities with which Bob, as he is universally known, has often wrapped his verbal blows. Her barbs have been aimed at Joice Mujuru, the 59-year-old vice-president, who was hand-picked years ago by the old man and until last month seemed to be the front-runner in the treacherous race to succeed him. The first lady's attacks have been vitriolic in the extreme, even by local standards, suggesting that Ms Mujuru might be killed and that "dogs and fleas would not disturb her carcass". During an ill-tempered cross-country tour, involving ten rallies, the first lady repeatedly called for the vice-president's resignation and endorsed as a replacement the 68-year-old justice minister, Emmerson Mnangagwa, one of the party's hard men.
