Dear EEF Commander in Chief, Honourable Julius Malema
I write to you with a profound sense of shame proffering my
most sincere apologies for the deplorable manner in which your kind gesture of
honouring the legacy of the late revolutionary icon, President Robert Gabriel
Mugabe has been maligned and abused by Emmerson Mnangagwa’s regime. As a
Zimbabwean, I feel obligated to apologise and take responsibility for the bad
behaviour of Mnangagwa and his band since they are my compatriots.
The objective of the abuse and disparagement is to deflect
attention from how Mnangagwa’s regime and its associated entities hounded and
tormented President Mugabe into his death in exile. Mnangagwa has tried to
bully and threaten President Mugabe’s family into burying him at Heroes Acre.
He failed. After failing, Mnangagwa continues on a programme of retribution
against President Mugabe’s widow and family. They have set illegal panners onto
the family farm.
It is appalling that the Mnangagwa government owned and
controlled Sunday Mail newspaper has been consistently abusing you for
honouring the memory of President Mugabe. Mnangagwa’s media is pushing a
blatantly false narrative that President Mugabe anointed Honourable Saviour
Kasukuwere for president in a bid to downplay President Mugabe’s respect for
democratically electing leaders. These narratives are then taken on by
state-run social media ghost accounts that seek to further undermine President
Mugabe by stoking tribalism.
It is also unfortunate that some individuals have also
given hostage to fortune by injudiciously seeking to publicise the so-called
Zimbabwe Generation 40 political party as being associated with some of us who
are labelled as G40 stalwarts. Whilst I acknowledge that individuals have a
right to harbouring and furthering their own personal political ambitions, I
also have a right to dissociate myself from such ambitions as I hereby do.
Apart from which, I am still mourning and grieving for my uncle, President
Robert Gabriel Mugabe, to engage myself in such political shenanigans. Originally published on patrickzhuwao.com
