Tinashe Sambiri|Professor Jonathan Moyo has postulated that the Zanu PF leader Mr Emmerson Mnangagwa lied about his age.

Moyo posits that Mnangagwa’s year of birth is 1938 and he wil turn 83 next month.

If Prof Moyo’s assertion is anything to go by, it means Mr Mnangagwa lied about his age.

“HOW OLD IS EMMERSON MNANGAGWA? Some who were with him in Zambia, and were born in Sept 1938, say they used to have joint birthday parties with him.

In the 1980s/90s, press reports said he was born in Sept 1942. Now he says he was born in 1946. Truth is he’s turning 83 next month!

AS MEMBERS OF THE ZANU Branch in Lusaka in Zambia & although born on different dates in 1938, three persons used to hold an annual joint party to celebrate having been born in the same year, as boys of 1938, and these are Josiah Tongogara, Jonathan Mandaza and Emmerson Mnangagwa,” Prof Moyo posted on Twitter.
