Who did this evil act?

PART 1: Sukoluhle Sibanda| Today marks exactly 2 years and 4 months since the attempted assassination on Vice President Emmerson Mnangagwa in his office which left two of his secretaries deathly poisoned on the day the VP rose to the become President Robert Mugabe’s second in command. Was it an attack and not an inside job? Who exactly did this evil act which would have seen the two women dead and to what purpose really? ZimEye.com begins exploring the facts.

Rushing to tell Mugabe

There was a lot of government bungling with investigations and reports on the incident soon after it occurred (READ MORE- Cyanide Poison Attack on Mnangagwa) strangely resulting in only the President knowing about the accident way before any journalist (including state journos) had. Mugabe would be seen announcing it before any journalist had broken the news. Who rushed to tell President Mugabe, and for what purpose? Why did they not consider informing police, the CIO, and journalists first?

2 Women attacked

The first secretary who works in Mugabe’s office only identified as “Fadzai” was still hospitalised at the time of the printing of the first news release as prayers were being called upon for her speedy recovery. Fadzai is a traditional member of Ezekiel Guti’s ZAOGA church. The second victim was Mnangagwa’s usual secretary, Catherine Magaya who was also hospitalised at West End Hospital.  Mrs Magaya would soon say that there are many evil and strange things she has seen while inside Mr Mnangagwa’s office. She audibly complained of mysterious demons in there. She furthermore said at one time “a large rock to fall from heaven through the roof and went straight onto the side where Mnangagwa sits.

“Just a few weeks ago, a rock fell from nowhere to land on chef’s desk, missing my head by just an inch,” she said.

Magaya told the state media said there was another incident when she twisted her neck after going into a trance “soon after opening Cde Mnangagwa’s office.”

Real or merely in one’s head? 

Were these attacks real or merely in one’s head? Mrs Magaya’s fiery asteroid that fell from heaven and hit Mnangagwa’s desk story might be unproven, but the cyanide attack was real because it was corroborated by the doctors who attended to the two women. Outside of the cyanide attack is another which the outspoken MDC-T Central Committee member, Job Sikhala speculates saying, “Of bizarre happenings and mysterious twisting of necks and stones falling from nowhere. If you ask our elders and traditionalists they will tell you that there is a spiritual anger from someone murdered who will give you hell lot if sleepless nights and torment you until confession. My suspicion is that necks are being twisted by Gen Solomon Mujuru and is throwing stones from nowhere.”

CCTV evidence

Whatever and however mysterious Mrs Magaya’s experiences are, one thing stands bold: how can the police fail to simply lay back CCTV footage at the building? How can the police and together with the CIO agency fail to find out through simple finger print tracing the identity of the person(s) who entered the building while Mnangagwa was away? Who will give answer to these questions, and when?

Mnangagwa seeks prayers

VP Mnangagwa this week came out in pictures seeking prayers from a local preacher. A touching picture shows Mnangagwa kneeling before the preacher who is dressed in majestic red robes. This comes after the VP also approached the Madzibaba Mudzidzi Wimbo of Madziwa for prayers, the latter who then began advising him on what to do in order to take over from President Mugabe. Is Mnangagwa seeking prayers out of humility and true reverent worship of God Almighty, and not out of the mere lust for power and fortune?
