'Security apparatus' ploy to shutdown Manhize foils,' Mutsvangwa claims

ZANU-PF spokesman, Ambassador Christopher Mutsvangwa has this Thursday sensationally claimed that a major security institution's ploy to shutdown Manhize Dinson Iron and Steel Company was thwarted, while claiming that Mnangagwa has already started chopping out all culprits obstructing his projects.


Mutsvangwa also declared that he know the culprits behind his son's incarceration (then) which was later reversed by President Emmerson Mnangagwa.

Speaking in response to recent social media claims by firebrand war veteran, Blessed "Bombshell" Geza (during a press conference) that Mnangagwa was responsible for his son, Neville's incarceration, Mutsvangwa described the claims as mere fabrication meant to conceal identities of his real enemies within party ranks.

"I will tell you, two three months ago, a major security institution wanted to close Manhize, the accusations were that they were not producing steel, but they are digging gold and smuggling, because they are Chinese," Mutsvangwa claims.

"But an organisation actually descends upon Manhize start threatening everybody left, right and centre; a project which the President has been promoting since 2013. He was furious about it, and just like over my son's issue, the axe has fallen on some of the bureaucrats thought they were bigger than the President. We saw bureaucracy on certain very high positions vachiona zvitupa zvave paWindow (being relieved off their duties and chopped from their current ranks)," Mutsvangwa disclosed.

"He (Geza) mentioned the other day that my son was incarcerated by the President, it's not true. I know who was behind my son's incarceration in May last year and I know why it was done and the President had nothing to do with it. He had to come back and undo it in a manner that does not arouse anxieties that he may not be interfering with the judiciary," Mutsvangwa said.

"So to say President Mnangagwa is behind the persecution as claimed by Comrade Bombshell is totally wrong, but rather, the people who are telling him to go on television are the ones who are behind the persecution of my son," Mutsvangwa said.

Meanwhile, Mutsvangwa has accused former Finance Minister, Tendai Biti of engaging in clandestine campaign to influence international opinion on Zimbabwe's land reform program.

Ambassador Christopher Mutsvangwa disclosed that Biti has been secretly holding meetings with American diplomats in South Africa, with the hidden agenda of whipping up emotions about title deeds and the land issue in Zimbabwe in order to draw President Donald Trump's attention.

He described Tendai Biti's actions as part of a broader strategy to reignite international scrutiny on Zimbabwe's land reform program of the early 2000s  which witnessed the redistribution of land from white farmers to black majority Zimbabweans.
