Former Industry Minister, Dr Nkosana Moyo may just be another big catch by the Joice Mujuru led Zimbabwe People First.
Sources within the party alleged to ZimEye.com that the former Minister concluded discussions with Mujuru at the weekend. The sources however could not give full details of the deliberations between Mujuru and Moyo.
Moyo resigned from President Mugabe’s cabinet in 2001 only a year into his office following what he described as difficult ZANU PF policies to work under.
He then left the country for South Africa unannounced before sending his resignation from cabinet via fax to Mugabe twenty four hours after leaving the nation.
Responding to Moyo’s resignation President Mugabe described Moyo as a coward.
“We can not work with cowards like Moyo in our cabinet. Wet want people who we can stand with amadoda sibili (real men) not people who chicken out when the struggle gets hot,” Mugabe was quoted.
Mugabe was highly applauded when he appointed Moyo into his cabinet as the man who was not aligned to a political party at that time, was expected to be an independent mind in the revival of the country’s economy..
Moyo could not be reached for comment at the time of writing.
