New Patriotic Front (NPF) leader and losing presidential
candidate in the 2018 harmonised elections, Engineer Tendai Peter Munyanduri,
who anchored his election campaign message on providing milk, eggs, bacon and
honey, is admitted at Chinhoyi Provincial Hospital’s psychiatric ward after he
suffered a mental breakdown.
In his election campaign message, he had also promised to
appoint only two Government ministries and declared that former Vice President
Joice Mujuru and MDC-Alliance leader Nelson Chamisa were incapable of running
the nation.
Eng Munyanduri, who is employed by the Zimbabwe Electricity
Transmission and Distribution Company (ZETDC) at its Chinhoyi Megawatt offices,
is alleged to have suffered a mental breakdown while at work early last week.
Inside sources at the Megawatt offices who requested
anonymity said he indecently exposed himself to female members of staff during
an internal wellness programme.
Some male workers, the source said, quickly moved in to
cover him and took him to Chinhoyi Provincial Hospital where he is admitted at
the psychiatric ward.
When The Herald visited Eng Munyanduri, he was visibly
emotional. He admitted that he was sick, but denied that he had
indecently exposed himself to fellow staffers.
He said the allegations were being peddled by detractors
who wanted to destroy his political career.
“Yes, I am not feeling well, but the claim that I
indecently exposed myself is a lie,” he said.
“All these rumours are aimed at tainting my political
imagine as I am a force to reckon with.”
Unconfirmed reports indicate that Eng Munyanduri also
exposed himself to female members of staff at the hospital.
Efforts to get comment from ZETDC spokesperson, Fullard
Gwasira, were futile by the time of going to print, while Chinhoyi Provincial
Hospital superintendent, Collet Mawire, could not divulge any information
citing hospital-patient confidentiality. Herald
