Zimbabweans React To ED's Dismissal Of Priscah Mupfumira Over Corruption Allegations
Zimbabweans have reacted differently to the dismissal of Tourism Minister, Priscah Mupfumira, over corruption allegations. Some hailed the president for the job well done whilst some say actual work remains to be done. We present below reactions posted on social media platforms.
That’s the way to go. @edmnangagwa has done the right thing by dismissing Mupfumira. I hope those implicated in the #NSSAScandal will be expelled from parliament and other public offices too.
Gogo Mupfumira was EATING LARGE and it was well-known in many circles for the past 2 years
He has done the right thing, something which he should have done from day one. There should never be a place for any person in cabinet who has been implicated in the rot that Prisca Mupfumira finds herself in. In fact she should have resigned, that is what decent people do!
Linda T. Masarira-Kaingidza @lilomaticFor the 1st time in the history of corruption cases involving @ZANUPF_Official senior members, I am seeing a glimpse of sincerity in dealing with corruption @edmnangagwa should sweep out all the chaff &ensure that all corrupt officials restitute what they siphoned from the state
The Accent @theaccentnewsMnangagwa fires Mupfumira. No idea why she had to wait to be pushed

ZANU PF @ZANUPF_Official#ZeroToleranceToCorruption As President @edmnangagwa intensifies the fight against corruption in accordance to pledge 2 of his 5 year 5 pledges card. #ShamhuIneMunyu @OpenParlyZw
Prof Jonathan Moyo @ProfJNMoyoIn October 2017, four weeks BEFORE the coup, Mupfumira WAS FIRED by President Mugabe for exactly the same NSSA allegations over missing tens of MILLIONS of US dollars under COMMAND AGRICULTURE. Mnangagwa & Chinamasa defended her & Mnangagwa got her back to Cabinet AFTER the coup!
Mlungisi Dube @MlungisiMthemboThe firing of Priscah Mupfumira over allegations of corruption is a welcome development but we will be happier to see other ministers, army generals also being arrested over corruption. At the moment we are not sure if it’s just Mupfumira who fell out of favour
The right one!! @HeirsTryIt can be a calculated move by ED; very soon #mupfumira can be out ; it could be a discussion done behind the scene to disguise the naive !!
Zenzele @zenzeleZBC reports Priscah Mupfumira has been fired as tourism minister but as it stands she remains eZANUPF politiburo member and stil enjoys the perks. Pulling wool over our eyes. #Asakhe
Our Future Today @ChimedzaneIs it newsworthy that Mupfumira is fired , a person who stole from the poor. Why does opposition supporters rush with this drama in ZanuPF gvnt ?
Engineer William Guzha @William03391041Unfortunately the Mupfumira’s arrest didn’t gather the much anticipated vibe as Zanu anticipated. Only Obert Mpofu’s arrest will get the nation talking
Gerald Maguranyanga SPORTING AGENT @maguranyangaPatience hama. Watch the space. Names BIGGER than MUPFUMIRA will walk. I have my ear close to the ground
Charisi @CharisiCharlesMupfumira was fired by Mugabe because of NSSA corruption and it was highly publicised by Grace but ED ( who is serious in fight against corruption by the way ) reappointed her
Dhara Blessed Mhlanga @bbmhlangaMinister fired over corruption- I would love to see @edmnangagwa go further deal with the Permsec who allowed the root in the ministry, also to Gvt officials who watched Chitiga bag USD$21 000 in salaries every month.
Privilege Musvanhiri @MusvanhiriAizve, this could be a first! Let us see how it ends. Who may be the next?
