By A Correspondent- Zanu PF big wigs in Manicaland have saved the party’s political commissar, Patric Chinamasa from a road accident that almost killed him.

Chinamasa rammed into a scrap metal carrying truck near Rusape on Saturday night.

He was saved by Zanu PF Manicaland provincial chairperson Mike Madiro, who quickly rushed to the scene of the accident soon after it occurred after National Police spokesperson Assistant Commissioner Paul Nyathi had professed ignorance about the accident.

Madiro said Chinamasa only complained of chest pains.
“I am not exactly privy to what really happened, but I understand that he rammed into a truck which was carrying scrap metal. I understand that Chinamasa’s windscreen was hit by some poles and scrap metals, which then led to the accident. The lorry that he rammed into had no rear lights and reflectors,” Madiro said.

“I had to rush to the scene of the accident moments after it happened. I can confirm that Chinamasa is now in a stable condition and he only complained of chest pains.”

Madiro was among several Zanu PF officials who also rushed to the scene of the accident, including Makoni district co-ordinating committee chairperson Albert Nyakuedzwa.

Officials said Chinamasa was still admitted at a private hospital in the capital as of last night.
