Former Education minister, David Coltart has said that Professor Jonathan Moyo is embarrassed by his history which he constantly remained of.
Moyo used to be President Robert Mugabe's fierce critic. Hew he changed paths to emerge as the chief propagandists.
Coltart explained Moyo's source of resentment towards his.
"Jonathan Moyo and I used to share a similar political outlook and on at least one occasion shared a common platform in criticising Zanu PF policy in the early 1990s.
"In 1999/2000 Moyo changed course and since then has been one of the principal propagandists for Zanu PF, which has inevitably brought us into conflict.
"I think that his resentment may stem from the fact that I often refer to Moyo's "previous life", which perhaps is embarrassing for him.
"I bear no grudges against him and greatly respect the work he did in the 1990s, particularly in the publication of his book about the 1990s elections called, Voting for Democracy."
