Former Deputy Finance Minister, Terence Mukupe has alleged that the socialite, Acie Lumumba recently appointed to the Finance Ministry is a thief. Below was the full text of his allegation:

If you need to understand the recent appointment of Acie Lumumba by Prof Mthuli Ncube just read law number 2 under the 48 laws of power which I abridged below :

“2: Never put too much trust in friends, learn how to use enemies”

But hire a former enemy and he will be more loyal than a friend, because he has more to prove. In fact, you have more to fear from friends than from enemies. If you have no enemies, find a way to make them

The key to power is the ability to judge who is best able to further your interests in all situations. Keep friends for friendship, but work with the skilled and competent.

My advice to the Prof is please keep him away from money… He has a serious weakness… Am sure he will be opening a toll gate very soon for people to see you without your knowledge… Straight out of the Kasukuwere school of ideology!
