A top radio station, SAFM has said Zimbabwe’s Vice President Constantino Chiwenga is not at all at Capetown’s Groote Schuur Hospital in South Africa.

The development came following reports on Sunday that he was admitted at the infirmary.

The general who removed Robert Mugabe in November 2017, reportedly flew into South Africa on Saturday and government sources said he was truly unwell and had to be airlifted out of Zimbabwe.

The following day (Monday) Zimbabweans in South Africa stormed the  Groote Schuur Hospital.

While they were demonstrating several other sources in Zimbabwe claimed that he is not at all at the institution. Two relatives claimed to ZimEye saying he is not as bad as reported.

But ZimEye discovered Chiwenga was nowhere near his usual areas of visits on Sunday as government sources described his flight out of Zimbabwe as a “medical emergency.”

SAFM has however quipped in with a different version, saying the Western Cape Health Department has confirmed Chiwenga was not at all being treated at Cape Town’s Groote Schuur Hospital on Monday.

Their tweet read: “Western Cape Health Department confirms Zimbabwe’s Vice President, Constantino Chiwenga is not being treated at Cape Town’s Groote Schuur Hospital. A group of Zimbabwean nationals are protesting outside the hospital, calling for Chiwenga to go back home to receive treatment there.”
