By Own Correspondent| Presidential spokesperson George Charamba has told opposition leader Nelson Chamisa to make up his mind on dialogue and stop globalising his decisions since the country’s economy has to move on.

Charamba’s statements come in the wake of failure by Chamisa to attend the President Emmerson Mnangagwa initiated pre dialogue discussion on Wednesday last week at State House.

Mnangagwa on the other hand also snubbed the Zimbabwe Council of Churches (ZCC) dialogue prayer meeting which was held the following day (Thursday) and instead sent the Defence minister Oppah Muchinguri Kashiri to read a speech on his behalf.

Deputy Information minister Energy Mutodi hinted to the media that Mnangagwa’s absence was deliberate. He said his boss did not attend the breakfast prayer meeting as payback to Chamisa for snubbing “his” pre dialogue meeting which was attended by over 15 presidential aspirants who contested the 2018 harmonised elections.

However Charamba accused Chamisa of failing to attend the Mnangagwa initiated pre dialogue meeting because he had not been given the go ahead by his “western handlers”.

Said Charamba:

“If he (Chamisa) is having difficulties with his external constituency, which as of yesterday (Wednesday) had not given him the nod to participate, that is a matter for him and his donors to deal with. He should never globalise his predicament because the economy has to move on.”
