Gokwe Nembudziya legislator Justice Mayor Wadyajena has dashed to the defence of under-fire health minister Obadiah Moyo saying criticism against him is not taking into account lack of resources and running an incapacitated ministry.

Posting on Twitter, Wadyajena said ministerial allocations are not disbursements calling for his capacitation before judging his performance.

“All this empty noise about how DrMoyo ought to be fired is stupidity on steroids. How do you expect more testing with no reagents? How do you expect isolation centres when there’s no money? @MoHCCZim’s budget allocations AREN’T actual disbursements! Capacitate him 1ST, then judge,” said Wadyajena.

Obadiah has been under fire amid deepening calls for President Emmerson Mnangagwa to fire him for incompetency.

Those pushing for his dismissal includes Presidential Advisory Council member Trevor Ncube and Hopewell Chin’ono among others.

They argue that Moyo is failing even basic things like proper communication on the coronavirus leaving the country vulnerable.
