By Don Chigumba | Professor Jonathan Moyo, Savior Kasukuwere, Patrick Zhuwao and Mandi Chimene are on the run, there are claims that they could be in South Africa or Kenya while Mandi Chimene is believed to be hiding in Vumba Mountains or Mozambique . Out of all G40 crew members implicated in corruption, Prof Moyo’s name is becoming popular as if he was the only worst devil in both ZANU PF lacoste and G40. This piece therefore seeks to prove that Prof. Moyo is not such a ‘worst criminal’ deserving to be extradited. The paper also seeks to prove that a previous cold war between ED and Prof. Moyo could be a ‘hidden’ reason behind Prof. Moyo’s possible extradition.
There is a move by ZANU PF women’s league to use Zimbabwe’s extradition Act of 1982 Chapter 9:08 to bring Prof. Moyo home for trial with charges that are not yet public to the Zimbabweans. When ED was addressing business people in South Africa, the media claimed that he said he was ready to forgive G40 members except Professor Jonathan Moyo and his two friends. If ZANU PF government is to be forgiven for the atrocities committed during gukurahundi, ED has to forgive everyone including Prof. Moyo.
President ED forgave the former President Mugabe and his wife Grace, what about Prof. Jonathan Moyo? Who is the worst person among R.G. Mugabe, Grace and Prof. Moyo? The forgiveness extended to Mr. Mugabe and Grace by ED leaving Prof. Moyo outside the realm of forgiveness is questionable and possibly proving that the problem is a personal vendetta between Prof. Moyo and ED.
Days before ED took power through the military, Prof Moyo was a thorn in the flesh of ED, he challenged ED in the politburo and the Zimbabwean media is our living testimony. I take Prof. Moyo to be a brave man and fighting a person of ED’s caliber is not an easy task. President ED should learn from Mbeki-Zuma conflict, in politics the one being victimized and mistreated will end up becoming a hero, the one being murdered will become a source of inspirations for the generations to come.
President ED was attacked by Mr. Mugabe and wife publicly and got sympathy from some sections of Zimbabweans including the military. Today, ED doesn’t even want to forgive Prof. Moyo and if Moyo is to be extradited, he will suffer in the hands of this current government, who knows, one day the political dynamics may change and the hunter may become the hunted. ED should stop building the political CV of Prof. Moyo but should work to unite the Zimbabweans.
The worst crime deserving extradition is genocide and Prof. Moyo’s hands are clean in comparison to most of the ZANU PF top officials. Today, ED government may find it difficult to contain Prof. Moyo’s criticisms because he is always speaking from a holy ground. His hands do not have blood that is why Kasukuwere and Zhiwao are quite, they know that their hands are not clean.
Prof. Moyo’s biggest mistake was the attack on media freedom, if he was to be extradited, he should be charged for ‘justice and freedom genocide’. He is the father and founder of AIPA and POSA among others but no one in ED government is talking about this. Prof. Moyo should be credited by ZANU PF for keeping it going through evil means.
The second worst crime deserving extradition is misuse of public funds, I believe that Moyo was involved in corruption of low magnitude compared to the majority of people in G40 and appointees of ED’s new cabinet. Prof. Moyo joined ZANU PF government when he was a poor professor and the time when the economy of Zimbabwe was no more. There are quite a number of ED’s appointees who were in cabinet since the year 1980 and now drunk with corruption, you cannot compare them with Mafikizolo like Moyo. Prof Moyo is alleged to be the ‘unholy beneficiary’ of grabbed farms and should be charged for causing hunger in Zimbabwe.
Conclusion
The government of ED is in a dilemma because of Prof. Moyo, he knows most of the hidden secrets about the members of the current cabinet. President ED’s government should concentrate much on national healing and not individuals like Moyo. If Ed forgave Mr. Mugabe and wife why can’t he forgive everyone who worked under them.
Prof. Moyo is useful for the opposition, it is just a matter of time, if not extradited, he will spill the beans before 2018 elections. For Zimbabwe to grow we need fearless people like Moyo who can speak their minds.
However, Prof. Moyo ate his own medicine wherever he goes (extradited to heaven or Zimbabwe) he has learnt a lesson of his life time. When he destroyed media and freedom of speech in Zimbabwe, God was watching and it’s time for him to pay back. Kasukuwere is another culprit, he thought leading by exploitation was the way to go now he is the master of exile crews. I therefore want to urge the advisor of ED Hon. Mutsvangwa to learn from the advisor of the former president Mugabe prof. Jonathan Moyo, politics is always dynamic. Exploit them today, they will revenge tomorrow.

Kanodenha kemusoro murefu ako.
Spot on !
Kkkkkkkkk Cant believe this! Is it already forgotten, that the same Prof. was advocating for ED will have to be brought home to face trial, soon after he escaped from a pending assasination after having been sacked as VP?
I friendly warned this bugger in time. He wouldnt listen. He shall face the consequences.
This is a stupid and hollow piece, calibrated to exonerate the fool called Jonathan Moyo. We want him here, dead or alive. Akatishungurudza murume iyeyu!
Actually varikumamirana ndi Jonso na Munangagwa. You cant blame Zimbabweans to celebrate the removal of Mugabe to be frank.This was our battle to see him gone and we still hv a long way to go, aluta continue for Zanu to go. But that does not mean Zimbabweans love Munangagwa, they dd not vote for him. Zimbabweans ar able to speak through elections which was being misused by Zanu and the Army.
Oooh here they go again, moyo this, moyo that. These people caused the current situation of the country’s economic death. Let them deal with each other, this has nothing to do with Zimbabwe’s future. Let them kill each other, it will b good ridency.There are many innocent people we have failed to advocate for in the hands of Zanu who lost their lives, not this Jonathan. He was part and parcel of the perpetrators of those murderous episodes
Jonso must stop spewing venom at the present government and ask for forgiveness. Why should the government forgive an unrepentant insolent culprit? ED is a human being and has feelings too. If Jonso takes it personal and wants to fight as can be seen from his tweets towards the man who is in charge; let him face the consequences. To say why Jonso alone is to be blinded by the tribal card; Chombo and Muzembi are not Ndebeles and they are facing the same government wrath. Masiyiwa the econet boss does not leave in Zimbabwe and I don’t think it’s by choice but he is not Ndebele either; don’t get me wrong here I am not saying Masiyiwa is a criminal but for reasons known by the government; he is living in exile.
JONSO is the rare breed Zim politics needs. HE long ago in july exposed the looming coup and state capture. & when these ruling thugs were exposed, they resorted to tanks & funs against unarmed political rivals who had intellectual outsmarted them. Unfortunately a lot of Zim idiots mistook this for a new democratic dispensation, and now horror is upon the few idiots plus the whole nation. Mamai, mati madii?
It really depends on who the contributor in this debate is. Jonso’s crimes are terrible to
some peoeple simple becauase he is who he is. We are comparing simple political opinion and the actual physical elimination of thousands of people. To me this defeats all logic. The truth is that Jonso belongs to another tribe and people calling for his head belong to another one. True he insulted almost every political figure that he could but that is not worse that the massacre of over 20 000 people and the kidnapping of people some from churches like Gibson Sibanda who was taken from a church in Mpopoma and just murdered. We forget that the same evil that we defend will befall on us one day because vanhu ndevaMwari…..
Yes I wander some seem to be blind on an issue like ED implication in the Gukurahundi atrocities ,and then jump to make noise about Jonso.Yes Jonso really committed his crimes ,jus like most of ZANU people in power ,but to try and equate his crimes to those of gukurahundi is a joke of the year!
True ,but how much did obert mpofu steal?
If he is fearless, let him come back and eyeball Mnangagwa or Chiwenga on video. That would be a video to watch.
They are all cretins. Zimabwe should just learn to make progress despite the government, which the biggest handicap the nation has.
prof. on. moyo has only himself to blame. instead of calming down ,ask for forgiveness from the government,he is ever attacking it indiscriminately.whose fault,then?This doesnt require professorship,it only requires -simply COMMOM SENSE !
Of all the people mentioned, Jonathan Moyo is the worst he brought more harm than good to the people of Zimbabwe, he hood winked MDC in Tsholotsho, a double edged sword-chisukuviri chaicho
Chikuni, isu we were not taught the kind of language you use. The terms we use usually defines who we are. Use of derogatory terms such as the ones you have used are very foreign in our lives.
It would assist if you restricted yourself to the debate at hand i.e. why you think Jonso was supporting ED during Gukurahundi time throughout the Tsholotsho declation period until the time after the Tsholotsho Declaration when he changed his colours. Secondly the debate is about him being forgiven at the time he is regurgitating venom at ED. These are issues for
debate.
“For Zimbabwe to grow we need fearless people like Moyo who can speak their minds”. For Zimbabwe to grow in which respect or what sense? If Moyo is so fearless why isn’t he in Zimbabwe and taking his medicine (at least I would develop some modicum of respect for him). The last couple of decades he was speaking his mind ” fearlessly” how did Zimbabwe (with the possible exception of Tsholotsho) grow or in the least benefit in any way? Isn’t it that he confessed to his erstwhile master Robert Mugabe that after rebelling against Zanu PF the chills (cold) started biting him hard. So, just like he demonstrated in the ZIMDEF saga he was in it to loot just like everybody else who is in it to make money for themselves.
With one stroke of the pen you associate and villify ED for Gukurahundi which that rat of a human being Moyo has been harping on about ever since he scampered out of the country tail tucked between his legs, yet you remain silent about the person in charge and thus guilty of presiding over that very dark period of our history. (The rest were purely following orders. You are silent about the reverse side of Gukurahundi which saw Shonas murdered or maimed for failing to speak Ndebele). That very same person Mugabe it turns out Moyo mortgaged his heart and soul to long ago. What does that say of your “fearless” professor. By association and by virtue of lending a hand in the endeavour to establish a Mugabe dynasty, Moyo is also guilty of Gukurahundi. When you lie with dogs you get fleas isn’t it.
As for the grudge between ED and that hyena whether perceived or real I couldn’t give a toad’s bottom about it. What concerns me at the moment are bread and butter issues and I am going to do my level best to address these issues with ED at the helm. Now, one thing I’m certain is that I am not the only Zimbo who feels this way.
aaah am surprised by what you are saying this is politics my brother, a game of chameleon trust noone. People fight for positions and money nothing else and the majority suffers.
the question is why mentioning Moyo most than other appointed ministers
yes but including the appointed ministers in this ‘new’ old government. not only him it shows there is much of personal issues here.
Mutsvangwa did the same during Mugabes rein but nothing happened to him. Why is Chimene being persecuted when it was a political opinion! She even got expelled from the party and got like Mutsvangwa. Why the persecution on female Cdes who went to the struggle to get our land Zimbabwe free from the oppressors.If ED is really serious about forgiving, he must give these self exiled politicians a guarantee of their safety upon return. Let’s build Zimbabwe together, elections are around the corner!
You’ve been kicking to much ass Mr Chitenga Chimere. Is ED not implicated mukufa kwevanhu 30k plus? Heaven only knows why you’re so full of shit. Bhinya ibhinya chete. Taura justice chete, kwete kunanzviswa mkosho.
Jonathan Moyo is an undesirable element. Must stay where he is he has nothing to offer to zimbabweans he is a thief. He stole students money and bought bicycles what kind of a minister is that.
Moyo will only be forgiven once he stops denigrating ED. There is a difference between
constructive criticism and malicious attack. Jonso has to stop the attacks so as to be forgiven
Jonso is busy fooling people and misleading them about ED. Whenever he opens his Grace-spoiled mouth he labelsa ED as a Gukurahundist. Allow be to recollect 2 periods in history. the time of Gukurahundi and the time of Tsholotsho Declaration. Tsholotsho declaration came years after Gukurahundi. But as far as we all can remember, Jonso was fired from Zanu for attaending and leading the Tsholotsho Declaration which declaration sought to remove RG and elevate ED. The question everyone has to ask is whether Jonso knew then that Ed was a Gukurahundist as he alleges now. If so why then was he trying by any means to elevate ED at the expense of RG. Jonso is a dangerous liar
Jonathan also misled a lot of public institutions caused lots of disgust to many Zimbabweans i also think his head is equally disgusting outside and inside. Kasukuwere has a whole bible of questions to read out , as for Mandi Chimene i dont know whay she is in the mountains maybe a mountain spirit is upon her..she must just apologise for insulting and repay a few dollars to some people somewhere there..Zhuwawo..he lost his passport so he cant fly back!
Unfortunately Don, we want all criminals brought to book. Some free information for you, Jonathan Moyo stole $400K from zimdev meant for tertiary education and bought bicycles for his constituent. Mugabe shielded him from prosecution. We want that money back in education where it belongs.
