By Own Correspondent- Local government minister July Moyo has refuted allegations that his party Zanu Pf is diverting food aid meant for Tropical Cycone Idai victims.

Moyo said it is not possible that aid targeting cyclone victims could be diverted adding that the reports that came out in the media were being peddled by MDC activists.

He said this while addressing the media Tuesday at a Harare venue.

Said Moyo:

“….I know you (media) can sensationalise…..but yes there is one activist, a former MDC Mayor who has been present at Wengezi from day 1….As for diverting food aid, that cannot be a thing that is allowed. I know that the instruction is that we have said do not divert this food aid. We have said we do not want to politicise this aid. Nobody should be carrying food in their party cars and that we have said it clearly and that instruction is very clear.”
