Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>At the height of Zimbabwe\u2019s diplomatic fallout with former coloniser Britain, a pro-Zanu PF musician Tambaoga produced a song whose lyrics included the line \u2018the only Blair I know is a toilet\u2019 which received regular air-time across state radio and television.<\/p>\n

The song mocked then United Kingdom prime minister Tony Blair who was blamed by the Zimbabwean government for sanctions imposed against Harare and the country\u2019s subsequent economic collapse.<\/p>\n

After assuming power following the 2017 military coup, President Emmerson Mnangagwa was again dismissive of Blair, telling the UK-based Financial Tmes in an interview that \u201c…<\/p>\n

we are clear, even our former president (Robert Mugabe) was clear, … we have no hard feelings towards the Queen.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe guy we didn\u2019t like is that young man, Tony Blair. I don\u2019t know where he is now.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, in a curious turn of events, Mnangagwa now seems to know where Blair is and has now met him twice, first at the Africa Green Revolution Summit in Rwanda last year.<\/p>\n

The Zimbabwean leader again met Blair as part of his official engagements in London during his current trip to the UK for King Charles 111\u2019s coronation.<\/p>\n

The Tony Blair Institute for Global Change (TBIGC) has had lucrative contracts from policy and development consultancy services with several African governments over the years.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe help governments and leaders get things done. We do it by advising on strategy, policy and delivery, unlocking the power of technology across all three,\u201d the institute says on its website.<\/p>\n

This has raised questions about the nature of Blair\u2019s engagements with President Mnangagwa.<\/p>\n

Responding, Mnangagwa\u2019s spokesperson George Charamba said Blair was being engaged to help remove sanctions he helped impose against Zimbabwe.<\/p>\n

\u201cTony Blair was instrumental in the imposition of sanctions on Zimbabwe. He mobilised the whole Western world in a rally for sanctions against Zimbabwe, and it is only right that he rallies the same West in a new clarion call to reverse the sanctions. For that we engage with him,\u201d Charamba said on Twitter.<\/p>\n

Another talking point during the coronation was Mnangagwa\u2019s obscure sitting position at the grand Westminster Abbey for the lavish and archaic coronation ceremony.<\/p>\n

Social media mocked Mnangagwa for being unrecognisable in a corner seat at the back while the likes of eSwatini\u2019s King Mswati 111 were accorded privileged positions nearer the front rows.<\/p>\n

One of the many twitter accounts linked to Charamba pushed back against social media mockery of Mnangagwa\u2019s sitting position.<\/p>\n

\u201cSome very ignorant commentators have been making snide comments on the sitting position allocated to the President of Zimbabwe, vis-a-vis Heads of States and Government from Commonwealth countries,\u201d said the Tinoedza Zvimwe Twitter handle.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo assist, protocol puts Monarchs ahead of Presidents and Prime Ministers, which is why King Mswati and other Royalties sat in the front row, well ahead of several leaders, including the President of Zimbabwe.<\/p>\n

\u201cSecondly, leaders were sat in relation to the membership of their countries to the Commonwealth, of which King Charles III is head. Zimbabwe is yet to re-join the Commonwealth.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe sitting position for the Zimbabwean leader was thus appropriate, and made significant by the fact that he still was part of the leaders in attendance in spite of Zimbabwe\u2019s non-membership to the Commonwealth!!\u201d<\/p>\n

Aides also talked up Mnangagwa\u2019s meeting with Commonwealth secretary general Baroness Patricia Scotland and her staff at the organisation\u2019s Marlborough House headquarters.<\/p>\n

Zimbabwe applied to re-join the grouping in 2018 in a process that has dragged on without conclusion despite claims of \u201cvery impressive\u201d progress by both sides.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe meeting reviewed progress Zimbabwe has made along the road to readmission,\u201d said the Tinoedza Zvimwe twitter handle.<\/p>\n

However opposition activists said Mnangagwa had been told that there would be no re-admission without substantive rights and governance reforms and as long as his government continued to persecute political rivals.<\/p>\n
