The leadership of Zimbabwe’s army has announced that it has ended its military intervention which led to the former president Robert Mugabe resigning from his post.
The military intervention which many considered a military takeover put pressure on Robert Mugabe to exit power and usher in current President Emmerson Mnangagwa.
Zimbabwe’s national Army commander Philip Valerio Sibanda told the media in Harare that “The defence and security services come before you to pronounce the end of Operation Restore Legacy,”
“Normalcy has now returned to our country. We want to thank all Zimbabweans for their support, patience and understanding during the five weeks of Operation Restore Legacy,” Sibanda added.
The army chief also called on Zimbabweans to be on the lookout for “malcontents and saboteurs”.
“Your defence and security services would like to remind all Zimbabweans to remain vigilant and report any suspicious objects and individuals to law enforcement agents,” he added.
Sibanda said the military has now handed over “all normal day-to-day policing duties to the Zimbabwe Republic Police.”
“We urge all our citizens to allow for a smooth transition,” he added.
