After making stunning revelations that he was going to meet
former president Robert Mugabe at his Blue Roof mansion, MDC leader Nelson
Chamisa said Zanu PF has increased security at the former president’s house in
a bid to block the meeting.
Addressing the party’s provincial structures in Masvingo
recently, Chamisa claimed that Mugabe promised to give him damning files on all
the Zanu PF top brass hence the reason why they went into panic mode over the
proposed meeting.
“I wanted to cause panic within Zanu PF and said I wanted
to meet Mugabe. Everyone in Zanu PF went into panic mode and they were sweating
all over.
“I heard Mugabe has damaging files on all Zanu PF chefs and
he told me to come get them so they want to prevent me from seeing him. This
has become a contentious issue within Zanu PF and we hear they are increasing
security at the Blue Roof mansion to make sure that I do not get in. Every day
they add soldiers,” said Chamisa.
The youthful opposition leader said he is yet to meet Mugabe
and is still playing politics but he will eventually visit him.
“I haven’t met Mugabe since he was removed from power to
ask him how retirement is going. Mugabe thought that the country would come to
a standstill when he is not in power but that is not the case. I am still
playing politics but will eventually have a meeting with Mugabe,” said Chamisa.
The proposed meeting with Mugabe has since divided opinion
with many questioning the logic behind meeting someone who terrorised
opposition members and ruined the country.

spokesperson Simon Khaya Moyo as his mobile went straight to voice mail. Tell Zimbabwe
