By A Correspondent| A flaming rumour tore into community discussions last night claiming that Zanu PF leader Emmerson Mnangagwa has restored the humiliated publicist for the Finance Ministry, Acie Lumumba.
All this happened when however there was no announcement whatsoever by Mnangagwa’s office on the said development. Efforts by this reporter to obtain a comment from either the Information Ministry or the Office Of The President, were fruitless at the time of writing.
Lumumba, real name Gerald Mutumanje, was fired within 3 days of being appointed the head of a communications taskforce for the Ministry Of Finance. He was relieved of his job after streaming a live video in which he exposed an alleged scam involving directors of the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe.
Discussions went ablaze Friday night under the rumor that the Zanu PF leader has since restored him to his job.
All this came at a time when ZANU PF youths hailed Gerald Mutumanje for exposing what they termed corruption.
At the close of day, the report appeared more of a rumour than anything else. –
1/3.
At least a week before Lumumba named and “shamed” the suspended RBZ officials , Cde Tirimusango Wenje had changed his facebook name from Tirimusango Wenje to Fight Corruption as part of action to give more impetus and prominence to the need to fight corruption. pic.twitter.com/3La2FCQXTi
