By Jane Mlambo| South Africa’s Finance Minister Tito Mboweni has become the latest top figure in South Africa to speak on the diplomatic tiff instigated by remarks made by Zanu PF Director of Information Tafadzwa Mugwadi.

Posting on Twitter, Mboweni said he wished if he could be allowed to square off with Mugwadi who has been unrelenting in his attack against SABC Foreign Editor Sophie Mokoena.

“I wish the President could just allow me nyana to tackle that turncoat @Tafadzwa Mugwadi,” said Mboweni.

Mugwadi has come under fire over his remarks in which he threatened to expose the ANC delegation’s hidden agenda when they visited Zimbabwe to meet with Zanu PF.

Zanu PF Spokesperson, Simon Khaya Moyo has since distanced the party from Mugwadi’s remarks while announcing that the motor mouth young politician will undergo disciplinary action over his reckless remarks.
