Mugabe calls
Information Minister Professor Jonathan Moyo the devil incarnate for allowing stories
of rampant corruption by Zanu PF leaders to be published.
"I am saying this
because all the men that we had, who were leading the newspapers, were fired
and replaced by those from the MDC," Mugabe said.
"You were all
thinking you had a trusted person," he said, referring to Moyo, adding
that the minister was in fact "a devil incarnate". Mugabe’s real
gripe with the local newspapers and ZBC is that they covered the stories of
rampant corruption by Zanu PF leaders. All these years Mugabe has maintained
there was no corruption in Zimbabwe and now the nation has concrete evidence
that this has been a rat’s nest.
Mugabe is not angry that
there was corruption but that Professor Moyo has allowed the stories to come
out! He is furious about that!
Professor Jonathan
Moyo is now the "devil incarnate" because he allowed stories of Zanu
Pf corruption to be published in the country, and in the Zanu PF controlled public
media too! For 34 years the party has successful kept the people of Zimbabwe ignorant
and brainwashed with its propaganda and so for the Minister to have allowed
this break from the time honoured party tradition is simply unforgivable!
It was the decades of
lies and more lies that had allowed mismanagement, corruption and brutal
oppression to get completely out of hand. Corruption had become so rampant
people like Cuthbert Dube and George Charamba were fleecing PSMAS of all the
money there was nothing left to pay those who provided the services to the
members.
It is naive to think
that a story of the CEO who is paid $ 500 000 a month whilst members are dying
because they have no money to buy medicines their subscriptions should have
covered can be swept under the carpet. This was not the only story of rampant
corruption gone mad; the same thing was happening in all the other parastals,
councils, government institutions. It is only a madman who would think all
these stories could have been all swept under the carpet and no one would have
noticed!
The Zimbabwe economy
is in total meltdown because of the years of misrule; is Mugabe proposing
sweeping that under the carpet too. The consequences of the economic meltdown
are affecting millions of Zimbabweans; sweep that under the carpet too!
The lack of clean
water affecting everyone is a serious health time-bomb. Should we sweep that
under the carpet too!

Hold on here; yes it is good that the corruption stories have come out but we must never forget what an evil man Moyo is. The stories came out because that suited his own selfish personal agenda and not because he cares about keeping the nation informed!
Make no mistake about it Moyo is the devil incarnate alright in this case it is one devil incarnate calling another a “devil incarnate” that is all! The devil denounce his assistant does not make the later a saint! Imagine Moyo expecting to enter heaven on the strength that Mugabe called the devil! Of course he will be told in no uncertain terms to join Mugabe in Hell where the two rightly belong!

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world.

Our challenge is to make sure that this devil incarnate does not drag the nation any deeper any further into the annals of hell! He has dragged the nation this deep but no deeper, this far but no further!
Enough is enough. The cup is full to overflow!

You saying Mugabe should fire Moyo; to what end and purpose?
Will that make the rampant corruption and the economic consequences they brought go away? The damage has been done by the corruption and not by making the stories public. To fire Moyo would be like closing the stable door when not only after the horse has bolted but the stables and the whole farm is on fire!
Mugabe is like a cobra that has been squashed by a car hissing at the flies that have already started to feed on his wounds and laying their eggs! Mugabe is finished and the tyrant knows it!
