The law applied discriminately its not law but persecution. If ZANU PF had been doing things right Zimbabwe would have not be where it is now. But TRULY ZANUPF government is setting precident which will be very painful when they are out of power. Mugabe will account for all the abuse of state funds embarking on endless trips globally. His children will pay since he may not be there then. Bona in particular for her mother and father sins since she has also joined in harrassing people forcefully taking farms.
THAT LIST OF ZANUPF BIGWIGS WHO OWED THOUSANDS TO ZESA IS THE REASONB HE WAS ARRESTED, PERIOD!
If somebody can be arrested for this, then they should arrest almost everyone who has been a minister for the last 35 years.
Tender rules have been flouted on countless times and this is how some of the ministers like Chombo have built empires on the back of tender flouting.
It looks like they just want to harass Mangoma for some time. After a period of harassment he will be found not guilt. But he will have lost money and time that he cannot recover back. How many times have we seen this?
zanu has been down this road – it does not work. They cannot arrest everybody
the endless cycle of zanu pf political violence
