FORMER Industry and International Trade Minister Nkosana Moyo Friday dismissed President Robert Mugabe and Morgan Tsvangirai as unsuitable for the 2018 Presidential race because of their poor state of health.
According to NewZimbabwe.com, Moyo, who has declared his bid to challenge for presidency in 2018, was speaking to a group of Harare youths who had invited him to address them on his election manifesto.
"Realistically, both President Mugabe and President Tsvangirai are unwell," Moyo said.
"These are things that people are going to consider as we look into it. If this was in the US, just on the basis of health alone, they would not qualify to run."
Moyo's comments are likely to anger both Zanu-PF and MDC-T which have maintained trust in their leaders for 2018.
The Alliance for People's Agenda (APA) candidate has since sent a get well message to the MDC-T leader.
