Controvesial businessman Wicknell Chivayo has made a dramatic climb-down by 'apologising' to Higher Education Minister Jonathan Moyo.
Recently, Chivayo attacked Moyo on social media for suggesting that The Warriors need corporate sponsorship instead of an individual pumping in cash.
Chivayo has been bankrolling Zifa from his mysterious deep pocket.
Posting on his Facebook page, Chivayo seems to be begging for forgiveness.
He said First Lady Grace Mugabe reprimanded him for taking a dig at Moyo.
He wrote "I keep getting astronomical touching emails and messages from our players and football supporters across the nation considering the FIASCO that has been happening in the last few weeks.
"The good news is during my recent interaction with ZIMBABWE'S MOTHER (Grace Mugabe) she politely requested me to continue supporting the Warriors at all costs.
"As much as I tried to explain my side of the story she said you are all my children and I won't stoop so low and listen to the who said this and who said that.
"She encouraged me never to give up as well as to remain strong and expect criticism when executing national duty. "She also strongly reprimanded me for recently attacking an Honourable cabinet Minister on social media.
" Regardless of their size , complexion or financial status by virtue of being a minster who was appointed by the President they all equally deserve utmost due respect no matter their views or opinions in any situation.
"Just as my own small indirect way of apologising to him I will identify a school of my choice in TSHOLOTSHO and donate text books and stationary worth 50 thousand dollars.
"I rest assured her that oversight will be corrected in future... Based on her polite request as an AMAZING MOTHER I would like to bring this confusion to rest and assure everyone that I am FULLY BEHIND THE WARRIORS till the end...WHO AM I TO DISREGARD ADVICE FROM AMAI VE ZIMBABWE".
