MDC-T 'a duplicate of ZANU-PF'

The deliberate destruction of Matabeleland and it people

'ZAPU wanted to kill me' says Mnangagwa, A lie and blatant excuse of murdering those he HATES

I have read lies by desperate people, but this is exceptional. ZAPU never at one stage led by which ever person, or ZIPRA could stoop that low as to want to kill any person for a down low comment like that. This is a clear sign of an indiv…
