Zanu-PF Secretary for Information and Publicity Simon Khaya Moyo responded to MDC-T leader Nelson Chamisa’s claim that the party was behind the attack on Thokozani Khupe and her allies at the burial of Morgan Tsvangirai.
Said Khaya Moyo:
Khupe spoke on the incident. The police have already spoken about this and the people that were apprehended are obviously not Zanu-PF. Chamisa should tell us how Zanu-PF comes in or maybe he should go to the police and ask for records on the incident before he misleads people. This obviously tells us that he can’t even tell the word truth. Zanu-PF is not a violent party and we don’t condone violence. This is why we keep on emphasising to all the people of Zimbabwe that we want free, fair, peaceful and credible elections.

CHAMISA IS A DANGEROUS AND COMPULSIVE LIER HE BOTCHED UP A RELSTIONSHIP WITH KHUPE WHICH HE COULD HAVE HANDLED AMICABLY NOW HE ACCUSES ZANU WHO DOES HE THINK WILL BELIEVE HIM. IF HE MAKES IT TO STATEHOUSE THROUGH DUPING PEOPLE HE WILL NOT LAST LONG.THE ARMY SHOULD BE ON FULL ALERT HIS PEOPLE ARE THE ONLY ONCE PRACTICING VIOLENCE. HE IS ELOQUENT AND WITTY BUT HE HAS NO TACT OR PROPER STRATEGY . HE THINKS DRESSING DOWN OPPOSITION IS THE WAY TO WINNING HE WILL NEED PEOPLE LIKE ED TO WORK WITH .THEY ARE A FRAGMENTED COALITION.
Khaya Moyo should have simply said Zanu pf is not responsible this time around not to say Zanu pf is not a violent party ! Someone once told me that if you lie for a very long time you end up even believing in your own lies and now i see how true it is – How can a normal Zimbabwean say Zanu pf is not a violent party ? I thought Khaya Moyo should have said Zanu pf has turned a new page! That’s why we won’t vote for these EDiots! Chamisa has my vote !
Chamisa might be 100% correct judging by Zanu pf s response in arresting Mdc members even on cooked ip charges what more on genuine grounds ? If those people were really Mdc supporters I bet with my last bond note that they would have been behind bars already !
Not supporting what was said by Chamisa but what Mr Moyo is saying is also not true. People were asked questions like: Do you want Long sleeves or short sleeves by Zanu pf. If Moyo says Zanu pf is not a violent party. Such words from such an old man misleads people. He would have said: Zanu pf is now under new leadership and is denouncing violence that could make sense. Not to say Zanu pf is not a violent party yet we lost a lot relatives and friends. How can an old man lie like small boy who herds cattle like that? We know its politics but its very painful my countrymen to say its not a violent party. How many people people were tortured, brutally beaten and killed from 1980s up now. Mr Moyo be honest.
