President Emmerson Mnangagwa's advisor, Uebert Angel, has been implicated in a new Al Jazeera investigative report concerning Zimbabwean government efforts to lift international sanctions. According to the reporting, approximately $13,000 was disbursed to fund a staged rally during the COP26 climate summit.
The investigation alleges these funds were utilized to pay UK-based groups to orchestrate demonstrations aimed at compelling the removal of sanctions currently imposed on Zimbabwean leadership and entities. The involvement of senior officials highlights ongoing controversies surrounding diplomatic lobbying and foreign influence operations linked to the administration.
