What's at stake in Zimbabwe's upcoming elections? | Inside Story

Many in Zimbabwe have found themselves caught in a wave of high inflation, unable to afford the basics.
Now, add several other social issues - including crime to the mix - and you have a recipe for deep-seated voter dissatisfaction.
The two main candidates are expected to be, 80-year-old incumbent president Emmerson Mnangagwa, from the governing Zanu-PF party.
And, his younger rival - Opposition leader Nelson Chamisa, from the Citizen's Coalition for Change.
So, will they deliver on the promises they are making to voters? And what challenges will they face?
