By A Correspondent | Below is the LIVE discussion following Government spokesperson, Nick Mangwana’s last minute turning down a LIVE debate with former Harare mayor Gomba over MDC run councils saying:
“Please get someone from Zanu PF as I am not a politician and can’t really go for the political jugular as I am restrained by my office,” as he told ZimEye.
On Friday morning, Mangwana accused the MDC of running down the councils. He wrote on Twitter saying, “Our Cities have been totally run-down. What’s interesting is that in 20 years(1980-2000) we had great services.

“One wonders what has happened in the last 20(2000-2020) for us to be in this mess.
“Those who can’t run smaller things can’t surely run things at a National Scale.”
“But he posted a politically motivated statement on Twitter,” Gomba complained saying, to which Mangwana replied saying,
Mangwana responded saying, “Lol. Tell him I posted as an aggrieved ratepayer.”
So why don’t you come debate with your mayor as a ratepayer then?
To this, Mangwana said, “Naaa. People will always quote what I say and attribute it to Govt. Get Cde Mugwadi or Chirau.”
