A political analyst Vince Musewe has said President Robert Mugabe always try to run away for his failures by blaming others and this has kept him in power for so long.
Musewe said Pastor Evan Mawarire's reaction to Mugabe's attack was perfect and suitable. Mugabe recently attacked Mawarire over the July 6 Shut down protest.
"I liked Evan Mawarire's reaction to the attack on his authenticity as a pastor. So what, he said, whether he is a legitimate pastor or not does not change the situation on the ground," Musewe said.
"That is so true. You see Mugabe has always been good at deflecting responsibilities by shifting the blame and reframing problem situations to make it as if he is also a victim of circumstances."
He said remember the sanctions mantra, blaming the British for the violent land reform, blaming others for the missing $15 billion and so on.
"We know him well and should therefore not be surprised in him using his tried and tested methods which have unfortunately kept him in power for so long," he said.
