Kutama, Zimbabwe - Something uncommon is going on in Kutama, a little cultivating town around 85km west of Zimbabwe's capital, Harare.

Kutama is the origin of Robert Mugabe, who managed the southern African nation for about four decades.

Amid each decision season since the nation's autonomy in 1980, Mugabe's publications used to be seen wherever here - from tree trunks to auto windows. On surveying day, the outcome would dependably be the same: a staggering Mugabe win.

Be that as it may, the 94-old-year isn't on the poll this year.

In the wake of leaving in the wake of a military intercession last November, Mugabe was supplanted by his one-time close associate and VP Emmerson Mnangagwa.

On Monday, individuals in Katuma and crosswise over Zimbabwe will make a beeline for the surveys in a firmly challenged general decision that will see in excess of 20 applicants running for the administration.

Mnangagwa, Zimbabwe's present president and pioneer of the decision ZANU-PF gathering, and Nelson Chamisa, of the primary restriction Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) organization together, are viewed as the best two contenders.
