Staff Reporter| Police Commissioner General Augustine Chihuri yesterday spent the day preaching and dancing in Gwanda while his police were involved in intensive running battles with rioting members of the public in Harare.
At exactly midday while Harare was on fire, Chihuri was himself on fire preaching at the Gwanda Gospel Music Festival contrary to what was expected of the Commissioner of Police at that moment.
Chihuri was joined by several other high ranking police officers from Harare and Bulawayo who all looked oblivious of the burning capital city delighting themselves in heavy lunch and dinner at the festival.
Members of the public interviewed by ZimEye.com all expressed concern at the presence of the commissioner at the music festival when he was expected to be somewhere at Police General Headquarters monitoring the deteriorating security situation in the country.
A staunch ZANU PF supporter who only identified himself as Zulu castigated the Commissioner General describing his behaviour as being tantamount to “insurgency and conspiracy to the regime change agenda.”
The ZANU PF supporter called on President Robert Mugabe to recall Chihuri immediately.
“Chihuri knew before he even left Harare that the situation in Harare was tense but he chose to come and spend the day eating and preaching instead of protecting the nation,” said another resident Mkhululi Moyo.
“After all there are dozens of pastors at the festival why should it have waited for him specifically to do the preaching at the expense of his national duties,” he added.
Efforts to get a comment from Chihuri were futile as those around him refused media to talk to him. He was however a little later spotted giving an interview to state controlled media journalists commenting on the festival and not on his neglect of duty.
He is expected to give another sermon at the continuing festival again today and at the Brethren In Christ Church Gwanda service on Sunday.
