Western sponsored media fuelling Zanu-PF ‘factionalism’ – Ziyambi
By Staff Reporter
THE ruling ZANU PF has dismissed reports of factionalism in the ruling party as mere social media fabrications.
ZANU PF Secretary for Science and Technology Cde Ziyambi Ziyambi labelled the reports as mere fabrication of Western-controlled media.
“I hear them from you, the media. We actually sit down and laugh and say ‘can you see what they are writing about us when we are together?’ So we are aware that the media people always want to create fictitious divisions that are not there.
“As you can see we are Zanu PF, chatting jovially, but when you see us chatting jovially you insinuate that they were fighting. I don’t know where that comes from, but we expect it. That’s the democratic rights that we were given to speak but we think that you must lie to a certain extent, not cause alarm and despondency,” he said.
The Minister of Information, Publicity, and Broadcasting Services Dr. Jenfan Muswere echoed the same sentiments, confirming the unity of purpose in the party.
“There is unity, love, comradeship and harmony in the Presidium and government. Thus, there is no discord in the cockpit and at the present moment, the government is seized with ensuring the betterment of the people and rallying behind the President as he spearheads and shepherds the nation towards an upper middle-income society. The government remains unfazed by overzealous misdirected energies of half-wits on social media who wish to sow seeds of division.
“There is no room for theatrics and manufacturing of fiction through imaginary mandates and those bent on misinforming the people shall be dealt with in terms of the law,” said Dr Muswere.
