Jonathan Moyo's defence of Grace PhD strange

Information minister Jonathan Moyo has taken the unusual step of defending First Lady Grace Mugabe's doctorate that has been the subject of much discussion and speculation over the past few weeks.

But instead of shedding light and bringing finality to the matter, as Moyo might have hoped to achieve, his move has seemingly only served to stoke the frenzied speculation surrounding the PhD further, as the key details regarding Grace's admission and studies at the University of Zimbabwe remain shrouded in mystery.

The only thing that Moyo dealt with in his defence was the fact that Grace did not award the degree to herself.
