Mawarire's #ThisFlag rattles Mugabe

President Robert Mugabe yesterday used the burial of his former chief secretary, Charles Utete, to berate #ThisFlag movement leader, Evan Mawarire, and accuse him of receiving foreign funding to cause unrest in the country, a clear indicator the pastor's campaigns have rattled him.

Mugabe said Mawarire who has led peaceful protests against corruption, poverty and abuse of office by senior government officials and those who chose to follow him should leave the country.

Mugabe questioned Mawarire's authenticity as a man of the cloth.
