President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s presidential helicopter was forced into an emergency landing over 60 kilometres southwest of Harare on Sunday afternoon.

According to multiple sources, the Helicopter landed due to a technical failure.

Sources further revealed that the incident happened on Sunday around 4 pm in the Sandringham area, Matsvaire village, in Chegutu district when Mnangagwa was coming from his Kwekwe farm.

Earlier this month, he was forced to make a last-minute flight postponement to Mutare due to bad weather.

Sources said following the Sunday incident, strict protocols in maintaining the President’s chopper are expected to be enforced after the probe is concluded.
