Clive Malunga, founder of the Jenaguru Arts Centre and a musician known more for his controversial antics than his artistry, has once again stirred the pot with baseless claims aimed at capturing the public’s attention.
His latest outburst—predicting that President Emmerson Mnangagwa will not remain in office beyond 2026, let alone 2030—goes beyond mere provocation, veering into the realm of irresponsible sensationalism.

Book NowMalunga’s penchant for making wild and unsubstantiated declarations is nothing new. Earlier this year, in May 2024, he attempted to incite Zimbabwean youths into an uprising against the Government, an endeavor that was met with overwhelming indifference. The young people of Zimbabwe, focused on building a better future, rejected his radicalism, leaving him to nurse the wounds of irrelevance. Instead of learning from this failure, Malunga has returned with yet another round of outlandish statements, this time targeting the President’s life and tenure.
It is essential to set the record straight: Malunga is not a prophet. He possesses no special insight into the political or personal future of President Mnangagwa.
His predictions are not only unfounded but also reckless, designed solely to provoke and garner attention. This behavior reveals a deeper issue—Malunga’s unrelenting need to remain relevant in a political environment where his credibility is all but non-existent.
For someone who failed spectacularly to galvanize public support earlier this year, Malunga’s new position as a supposed authority on the President’s future is both laughable and disingenuous. His latest remarks serve no purpose other than to sow division and distract from the pressing challenges facing Zimbabwe. Rather than engaging in responsible dialogue or contributing constructively to national discourse, Malunga opts for the easy path of sensationalism, a tactic that does more harm than good.
Zimbabwe is at a critical juncture, and what it needs now is leadership that prioritizes unity, progress, and meaningful solutions. Reckless comments like Malunga’s undermine these efforts, diverting attention from the real work required to address the nation’s economic, social, and political challenges. The youths, whom he claims to champion, deserve better than empty rhetoric and self-serving antics.
Malunga’s latest attempt at relevance should be dismissed with the contempt it deserves. His remarks are nothing more than noise from an individual whose influence has long since waned. Zimbabweans must focus on building a future grounded in stability, unity, and progress—not on the divisive and baseless claims of attention seekers.
Ultimately, the nation deserves better than Clive Malunga’s grandstanding. His self-serving proclamations do little to advance Zimbabwe’s cause and only highlight his desperation to remain in the public eye.
As Zimbabweans, let us move forward with clarity, focusing on the substantive issues that matter, and leave behind the distractions of those who contribute nothing but empty noise.
