Zimbabweans have criticised the State media over a smear campaign against #ThisFlag front man Pastor Evan Mawarire.
On Saturday The Herald published an article accusing Mawarire of being a fraudster but the majority of readers are not buying what the paper is selling.
Below are some of the comments:
Comment 1: tukuzivai.profile the likes of Udenge Kasukuwere Chombo zhuwao then we will start listening to your stories.as for now it aint working.zvimwe dai matotsvaga iri sex tape
Reply to comment 1: Why cant your own papers profile too? This profile will dent the pastor!
Comment 2: Clearly Evan is no longer just s "hashtag fad" and has got to the powers that be for you to dig into his past. The sad thing is you missed your chance to have an interview with him and now the world media has given him a stage. The irony now is that you are now following him and watching his numerous interviews be they Sky News, SABC, CNBC or Enca. It's a shame that your bitterness is showing and evident for everyone to see.
Comment 3: what's with the smear campaign?
Comment 4: Spot on.he never claimed to be a saint.he is asking for the leaders to serve the electorate and fulfill their mandates and not their pockets
Comment 5: So this govt is so good no ordinary Zimbabwean can ever complain or speak up unless they are told to do so by the west? You Herald pple are fools
Comment 6: So now you have started digging up some dirt to discredit "The Man of the people". Keep trying becoz so far you have nothing. The more you dig, the more we see how desperate your attempts are. Answer the man's question - How can this gvt enable the citizenry to pay their daughters school fees like what happens elsewhere in the world. When you informalised the economy you couldn't foresee you were eroding your tax base.
Comment 7: MDC-T-agents of the west, war veterans-agents of the west, Beit Bridge cross border traders-agents of the west, pastors-agents of the west, civil society-agents of the west, kombi drivers-agents of the west, medical doctors-agents of the west...! Really? You shall admit that no one is an "agent of the west", mati madiiko!
Comment 8: Munoona chiyi imi vanhu veZanu , because you have lied so much in the past, your attempts at propaganda are now ineffective.
Nobody is ever going to believe your sh*t anymore. It stinks.
There were some who were in agreement with the state media article:
1: This is how you know Mawarire is a fraudulent pastor: Cde Robert Gabriel Mugabe was sent by God to rule Zimbabwe. Any true man of religion would support God's chosen leader. It is only a pastor masquerading as a man of God, but doing the Devil's work, who would opposed the leader God has chosen.
2: Lets see if he will deny this money mongering history. Other churches and political parties are worried about donors favoring this money criminal.
