President Mugabe has rebuked losing Zanu-PF candidate for Chinhoyi in the July 31 election, Phililip Chiyangwa for being pompous, saying that could be one reason that contributed to his loss at the hands of the MDC-T.
"Ngaagare pasi. Timuratidze kuti aiwa kana uchienda kuvanhu hauvhaire kuti ndine zvakati. Be down (to earth) Mari handiyo inoshanda all the time," said President Mugabe at a launcheon yesterday.
"Handisati ndamuwona kuti ndimuseke kuti nhai Gushungo, in all Mashonaland West Province Gushungo ndivo vakati mbombombo. Zvino ndakanzwa VaChombo vachiti zuva iroro, vakarara nebhutsu," the President said to laughter from guests.
Speaking at the same dinner, Mugabe also said mobile service providers like Econet should also allow broad participation for other players as what Telecel did by roping in indigenous players.
Telecel, he said, had included other local players, like war veterans, women groups and Affirmative Action Group among others to have stake.
Mugabe however said businessman, Mr James Makamba cunningly, asked some of these minority shareholders to sell their equity, a development that saw him increasing his equity in Telecel.
