POLITICIANS WASTING MONEY ON PROPHETS : MUGABE

PRESIDENT Mugabe has lashed out at politicians who waste money consulting prophets to advance their political ambitions. He said given the high level of literacy in Zimbabwe, it was mind-boggling how educated people fell prey to the tricks of the so-called prophets. The President made the remarks at the burial of Cde Don Kwaedza Muvuti at the National Heroes Acre yesterday. 

“Vamwe vari kuenda zvino vachida kunzwa kuti vanongoramba vakadaro here kana vachapfuurira kuenda kumusoro,” he said. “Maelections ari kuuya aya, ah, mapastor anogarawo akagadzirirazve. Hameno kuti mabhagidhi aya vanofana vatenga here? Votoenda ikoko? Ndicho chii ndiudzei munhu waMwari, son of God ndiudze. Iye anokuudza kuti, ah, iwe mangwana iwe ndiwe uchava Vice President. President kana vaenda zviri pauri iwe. Ndiri kuzviona, ndiri kukuona, ndiwe, ndiwe ooh, ooh.

“Wogozvaira kuti uchatora nhaka, uchatora nhaka ye zanu-pf yehukuru, oooh, tiri vanhu vane pfungwa dzakadini nhai nhai? Fundo yedu iri kutipa chii? Mumwe anobva ati, aah, iwe iwe unoda kuzvinzwa saani, ndinokukoromora iko kumusoro kwauri uko. Hakupere svondo usina kudonha iwe, wogogwasha zvino kuti maiwe ndakufa. Ndakufa, ndoenda baba iwe-iwe.”

The President continued: “Kazhinji tinogara tisingayeuke asi tinoyeutswa, vanoenda kusvondo vafundisi vanovayeuchidza, vave vafundisi vakanaka vanoda zvekwa Mwari, kwete vanoshandisa zve- kwaMwari kuti vapfume. Kurozva vanhu.

“Ndiri kunzwa kuti kunotoita kune dzimwe church kunonzi madrum anozara. Ini ndinoti ko anozara nei vanhu vedu vanongo chema, vanongoti hatina mari, hatina mari? Asi Pastor akauya achiti mose muri pano zuva raMwari richasvika hapana anozonzi murombo, mose muchava mupfumi nemupfumi, mupfumi nemupfumi imi motendera izvozvo? Muri kunyeperwa. Tanga wazvipfumisa iwe kwete kuuya nebhagidhi kuti rizadzwe. Inga takadzidza. Zvino mufunge tava vanhu vane njere, vanhu vanokwanisawo kuverenga Bhaibheri nepedu toga. Nyanzvi dzefundo asi dzinonozadza bhaghidhi iroro.”

President Mugabe said Cde Muvuti was a selfless cadre, who worked tirelessly for the party since the liberation struggle.

“Vana baba nana mai tose taungana pano taunganidzwa norufu rwemumwe wedu, Don Muvuti,” he said. “Vazhinji vanga vasingamuzive asi isu tanga tichimuziva kumuzivurura semumwe wedu anga achishanda nesu.
