By Paul Nyathi|Former President Robert Mugabe’s son Chatunga Bellermine has scoffed at suggestions by ZANU PF alligned War Veterans that his father invited America to impose economic sanctions on rival Emmerson Mnangagwa led government.

Writing on social media, Chatunga described the suggestion as the biggest joke ever claiming that his father remains patriotic to the country despite being forced to quit his position in a soft coup in November last year.

“I don’t comment on politics usually because thats not my field but l find it very funny and very laughable some people saying our Father begged for sanctions to be imposed on Zimbabwe,” said Chatunga.

“Congratulations that is the most biggest joke of the year it deserves an award.

“When it comes to our Father he loves his country and he has continued to say he will remain in the country because he is a patriot person and everyone knows it.

“A great Pan Africanist who’s history doesn’t need to be explained. So you can’t alleged President Robert Mugabe asked for sanctions from the west thats hilarious.”
