President Emmerson Mnangagwa yesterday said he is no longer enjoying public life because of tight security around him.

Mnangagwa is always surrounded by more than 100 security personnel.

Addressing business people at the official opening of the Highlands Park Shopping Mall in Highlands, Harare, Mnangagwa said he has not been able to take a walk for some time because of fear for his safety security details.

Security was visibly tight at park, as well as in surrounding areas such as Newlands.

“I don’t know even how to use a swipe card. I even sent my nephew to swipe for me and he had to ask me to give him my PIN code,” he said.
