The National Patriotic Front (NPF) is a Zimbabwean political party founded on November 19 2017 by leaders of the expelled ZANU-PF faction G40 including the exiled Jonathan Moyo, Patrick Zhuwao and Saviour Kasukuwere.[1] The party denounced the military takeover in November 2017, known as Operation Restore Legacy, that led to President Robert Mugabe's resignation.[1] In March 2018 Rt. Brigadier Ambrose Mutinhiri resigned from parliament and left ZANU-PF to become president of NPF and shortly hereafter Ambrose Mutinhiri was announced as the party's presidential candidate for the 2018 general elections.[1] In late May 2018 a video of Jonathan Moyo and Patrick Zhuwawo discussing the NPF's internal problems was live-streamed online. In the video the two former G40 leaders alleged the possible abuse of party funds by its spokesperson Jealousy Mawarire and party president Ambrose Mutinhiri. Mawarire reacted by calling Moyo a "bloody liar and petty thief."[1] On 8 June 2018 the party's national chairperson Eunice Sandi Moyo fired Ambrose Mutinhiri as party president. This led to a split in the party.[2] The faction of NPF led by Moyo later endorsed the MDC Alliance's leader Nelson Chamisa for president whereas Ambrose Mutinhiric ran as a candidate for the faction under his leadership, but got less than 1% of the vote. The faction led by Eunice Sandi Moyo is closely aligned with the Mugabe family, it won a seat in the July 30 general election when Masango Matambanadzo won the Kwekwe Central constituency, which he had represented for ZANU-PF until leaving the party earlier the same year.[3] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|url=https://www.pindula.co.zw/National_Patriotic_Front_(NPF)|title=National Patriotic Front (NPF) - Pindula|website=www.pindula.co.zw}} {{Zimbabwean political parties}}2. ^{{cite web|url=https://bulawayo24.com/index-id-news-sc-national-byo-137561.html|title=BREAKING: Chamisa fingered in Mugabe's NPF split|first=|last=eDuzeNet|publisher=}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.newzimbabwe.com/blackman-bounces-back-as-npf-mp-for-kwekwe-central/|title='Blackman' bounces back as NPF MP for Kwekwe Central - NewZimbabwe.com|date=1 August 2018|publisher=}} 1 : Political parties in Zimbabwe |
