Rusape – Central Intelligence agents last night blocked loyal ZANU PF cadres from being accredited for Robert Mugabe’s birthday celebrations slated for the weekend following a Whatsapp scouring of the people’s phone numbers.
While it was not clear how the CIO are reportedly scouring the Whatsapp network, several cadres were left stranded at ZANU PF headquarters in Rusape and had to report the matter to the police after they were kicked out of the queue for accreditations after being accused of supporting expelled Vice President Joice Mujuru.
They will not be able to travel to the Vic Falls luxurious function where elephants will be slaughtered for meat.
A group of unnamed men finger-pointed several party members instructing them to move out of queue last night. The ejected cadres ended up fleeing the offices for their houses, ZimEye.com was told.
“We are staying indoors fearing for our lives. We are being accused of using Dr Mujuru’s picture as a profile picture on Whatsapp,” some of the booted members told ZimEye.com
Efforts to obtain a comment from party spokesperson Simon Khaya Moyo were fruitless at the time of writing.
