Emmerson Mnangagwa is one of the most feared people in Zimbabwe. Once described as the Son of God because he was believed to be the logical successor of President Robert Mugabe, his political star has been rising and falling over the past three decades. He is still considered a presidential contender and is reported to have been virtually running the country since 2008 through the joint operations command. He is reported to be unpopular within the party but he is so powerful that no one really knows how true this is. There are 194 cables on him. Here they are:
