Zimbabweans should brace for a Robert Gabriel Mugabe university, Higher Education minister Jonathan Moyo has revealed.
Moyo, a once fierce critic of the 91 year old leader said Government is planning to name a university after Mugabe.
"At the moment we are thinking of naming a university after RGM," Moyo posted on his twitter account.
Moyo disclosed while joining a debate on declaring a Robert Mugabe Day.
Zanu PF youth league is pushing for such a day, w development that has been condemned by political parties and youths not linked to Zanu PF.
Representatives of the Zanu PF-aligned Youth Against Poverty recently approached Harare mayor Bernard Manyenyeni requesting for land to construct a stadium in honour of the President.
Political activist and commentator Setfree Mafukidze described the proposal as naive.
"It is naive and unfortunate that we have youths who advocate for a Robert Mugabe Day when 90% of the youths are unemployed," he said.
"It is Mugabe's responsibility to create a conducive environment, which will accommodate university graduates and all those eligible for employment to get jobs."
