Zimbabwean opposition lawmakers on Tuesday walked out on President Emmerson Mnangagwa's state of the nation address to parliament, signaling their lingering bitterness after losing a disputed July 30 presidential and parliamentary vote.

Members of Parliament from the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) and their leader Nelson Chamisa heckled Mnangagwa when he started reading his speech before filling out and leaving the national assembly.
