via Jonathan Moyo now looks like an idiot – Nehanda Radio Oct 17 2014
Two days after going to town in the state media trying to convince everyone that the First Lady Grace Mugabe had not attacked Vice President Joice Mujuru, Information Minister Jonathan Moyo now looks like a certified idiot.
Lance Guma: Through the Wire
What was the point of Moyo abusing acres of space in the state media to deny the obvious rift between the First Lady and the Vice President when 48 hours later Grace would use another rally to deliver an even worse attack on Mujuru?
Grace Mugabe used her rally in Gwanda on Monday to call for the ouster of Mujuru telling the crowd “Some think because if you are vice president you just stay there and do nothing while Mugabe works for you, we want people who are capable, we do not want a liability, hatimude (we don’t want her).”
The remarks were rightfully interpreted as an attack on Mujuru even though her name was not mentioned. But speaking to reporters in Lupane on Tuesday, Moyo came out guns blazing and attacked the independent media claiming their reports on the rally were the “infertile imagination of their creators”.
“It appears, unless if one is conflicted by concrete evidence, that this was the work of people in Harare, in these newspapers, who were not at Pelandaba Stadium in Gwanda yesterday because Dr Mugabe never said anything of the sort,” Moyo rambled on in his usual verbose fashion.
The Mugabe critic turned bootlicker claimed Grace Mugabe “was addressing the qualities that a Vice President and second secretary of Zanu-PF should have.” Moyo insisted: “It was more and only about the office, not occupant, past or present, but the office as it relates to aspiring candidates.”
Well 48 hours later Moyo must wish he could crawl under some rock in Tsholotsho and hide. He now looks like an idiot after Grace Mugabe savagely attacked Mujuru at a rally inside Chipadze Stadium in Bindura. This attack was even more vicious and direct that the one in Gwanda.
On Thursday Grace Mugabe in a usual “foot in mouth” fashion publicly tore into Mujuru telling her she must apologise to President Mugabe or risk being dumped for her “divisive” activities.
Grace went on to accuse Mujuru of engaging in illegal diamond dealings, extorting shareholding in some companies, demanding 10 percent bribes and undermining the authority of President Mugabe.
“The person leading factions is the same person who accuses me of being involved in diamond deals, yet it is them that own a diamond mine. That person also moves around saying I want to acquire money using unscrupulous means when it is known that I started my businesses from scratch.
“It is that same person who goes around demanding 10 percent shareholding in companies. If you go to any company now, the name of that person is mentioned. You lead factions, you extort companies and you are involved in illicit diamond deals, so you cannot say you are not corrupt,” Grace Mugabe said of the VP.
We now await clarification from Jonathan Moyo on whether the reports on the latest remarks by the First Lady are again the “infertile imagination of their creators”?
COMMENTS
She should reserve her sharpest tongue against ngochani and out jonso as one of them to complete the certification of the prof as an idiot. She appears very good at undressing the idiots who introduce her to the crowds at these stupid rallies. Mere attendance at these rallies is certification of stupidity.
Zimbabweans are most docile people on earth! Why are government resources (government employees’ time) wasted attending a party issue and nobody complaining about the wastage. If it was a meaningful party issue though it would still not make sense it would soften the stupidity. This woman is addressing rallies, having people trail her on working days on the strength of a nomination (not election) to a zanny party women’s league. Stupid party structures that the decaying husband instituted to manipulate the party so he can have absolute control over it. If there were other candidates there would be some little sense that she wants to campaign so she can win at the December congress. But no, there are no other candidates and all of a sudden a nominee to the hitherto useless party organ is the defacto head of both party and government.
This is one of the best dramas we have ever witnessed. It is apparent now that all hell will break loose and when that happens the political landscape will change for ever. This is the trigger that might make the people have a say for a change. Munangagwa and co have unleashed a Demon and it is out of control.
Jonathan Moyo is an idiot. He is even worse, he is a criminal idiot who needs to sing for his supper, lest he be sent to Kenya or South Africa to face the organisations he took money from and failed to deliver what was expected of him.
The case of two Doctors, The younger one telling the veteren of the liberation war to resign or get booted, what a mokery, watch this saga,blood is looming ,Madhuku correct.
Jonathan Moyo was employed by Mugabe as an arze wipe. He has cleaned up so much shyte from these morons and now he himself is saturated in it. We all know when chikorobho is so dirt it starts smearing dirt around instead of mopping it up.Moyo is filthy and stinks from that big head of his to his toes.
Someone should put this arze wipe in the incinerater and be rid
Not many of us ever imagined that Jonathan Moyo would be or was so foolish. He is one of Africa’s most laughable intellectuals, a typical example of a person who learns up to university and even becomes a professor only to come out of it a complete opposite of what education must produce.
Information Minister Jonathan Moyo “now” looks like a certified idiot.
“NOW” has everyone been asleep? I believe he was certified at birth!!??
wonder Disgrace has not lost her voice
As a former ZANLA veteran I absolutely despair at the divisions within our once proud and unified party. All I will say is that none of our leaders are less guilty than the other at creating malicious and vicious rumours. In the final analysis it all boils down to greed and a lust for power. This form of behaviour is not something we expected to see and experience because it only leads to insecurity and undermines the structure of our organisation. We therefore beg all of you, including Amai Grace, to desist from throwing insults at one another. It has to stop otherwise our party is in a vertical dive and on a suicide mission.
Saying Moyo looks like an idiot is an understatement, the guy has always been an idiot.
This is the guy who is trying to sue newspapers who correctly reported on a public press conference where he was attacked by Mliswa. The newspapers only reported what was said at a public press conference and now he wants to sue them. That shows what kind of an idiot he is.
Moyo is no idiot. He stole in Kenya and got away with it, he stole in SA and got away with it. He tried to steal an election. disparaged Mugabe and got away with it. Today he is a minister again. Moyo is misunderstood, he thinks and lived for Jonathan Moyo, the one and only person who he thinks deserves to lead. He will lie, invent, steal, even kill to get his way. Beware of this crocodile and do not think he is an idiot. Evil is a better word.
