MDC Spokesperson, Luke Tamborinyoka has lampooned the desperate attempts by the public media to denigrate youthful party leader, Nelson Chamisa.

Below is Tamborinyoka’ s statement:

The public media have upped their propaganda ante
against the people’s leader, president Adv. Nelson
Chamisa by putting words into his mouth in a
desperate bid to malign and ostracize him from the
women constituency of Zimbabwe.

The State-owned Herald and Chronicle newspapers
today published a malicious story falsely alleging
that president Chamisa told a rally at Maboleni in
Vungu yesterday that he was young and energetic
enough to impregnate any woman when in fact he
never said anything to that effect.

He never made
any direct or inferred reference to impregnating any
woman at the rally. All he said was that he would score
many positives when elected to lead the country.

In the past week alone, the public media have
published 49 stories all denigrating the person of the
incoming President who is set to resoundingly win
the forthcoming election.

The public media have
incessantly concocted vulgar words and anti-women
messages as purportedly coming from president
Chamisa with the aim of making him unpopular with
the majority women-folk in the country.

The public media clearly have an agenda to concoct
lies and sculpt malice against the young and popular
MDC Alliance presidential candidate in the vain hope
that they will succeed in denting his towering brand
and image.

The negative public media reportage provides ample
evidence why we are demanding media reforms as
part of a comprehensive reform package that must
precede the next election.

Equal, fair and impartial
coverage must be the dictum of our public media.

Regardless of how many times they put words into
president Chamisa’s mouth, the people of Zimbabwe
will not stop reposing their faith and trust in his
dynamic leadership.
Indeed, a new Zimbabwe is on the horizon.

Zimbabweans want change that delivers.
Behold the new.

Luke Tamborinyoka
Presidential Spokesperson and Director of
Communications.
