Dube gags media

via Dube gags media – DailyNews Live 11 FEBRUARY 2014

Cuthbert Dube, the ex-Premier Service Medical Aid Society (Psmas) chief executive, has sought to gag the media from reporting on his unceremonious exit, citing a variety of reasons and procedural flaws.

In a surprise warning late yesterday afternoon, the Zimbabwe Football Association president’s lawyers Venturas and Samkange suggested that the media risked multi-million dollar lawsuits if it kept writing on its client’s Psmas reign, salary and related matters.

“Our client has instructed us to act on numerous articles carried and published in your newspaper. These articles are defamatory, slanderous and false,” they said, adding the articles were penned “without due regard to the truth and accuracy of the information available to you”.

This comes as the Psmas saga has also sucked in presidential spokesman George Charamba.

    He can afford the lawyers at any rate of charge because money is there. Animal farm scenario.

    No use attempting to diffuse a bomb after it’s already exploded.

    Dube has found another way of making easy money…sue the press. Hollow threats…if you win the lawsuit please donate the whole sum to the people you have impoverished….if you have a shred of decency that is.

    I am setting up an interview with Studio 7 for you Cuthbert for 7:45 pm tonight. Tmro, at 8pm VOP will host you for an hour. Its now the time to resuscitate ZBC, you will go on ZBC TV on Friday to answer calls from Zimbabweans about these scandalous stuff. Beginning next week, you and I will start compiling a book, full of truth that must be published before you go to jail. Forensic auditors will be engaged to prove you version of the stories. In the absence of that we as ordinary Zimbabwean will continue to write, talk, present Cuthbert Dube in workshops and seminars as an example of white collar crime. You are a white collar criminal. Ask you Samkanges to come and arrest me.

    You must be ready to arrest 13million people talking about a PSMAS boss who earned millions in white collar crime. I will post you on linked in today

    What a disgrace these lawyers are. Any decent Zimbabwean should have declined to represent this foul person. I suggest right-minded Zimbabweans boycott this firm who obviously think more of getting their share of the loot via their fees than justice!!!!

    And certainly he wont sue them for $23000.00, thus peanuts, he will sue them for $230 million if they are not careful.
