PRESIDENT Emmerson Mnangagwa had to be helped to the podium by two aides who held his hands as he feebly made his way to the podium to address guests at a fundraising dinner at State House last night.
A video of Mnangagwa being helped to the podium by his aides has since gone viral on the social media, prompting speculation he may have turned up for the event in a drunken stupor.
However, officials from his office rushed to conclude he could have suffered extreme exhaustion after addressing successive events across the country in a few days.
The dinner was held to raise funds for students set to resume studies at the University of Zambia under his presidential scholarship.-NewZim
