Correspondent|DEPUTY Minister of Information, Publicity & Broadcasting Services Energy Mutodi has said that MDC leader Nelson Chamisa admitted opposition supporters only know how to burn property and loot shops
Mutodi, who posed for a selfie moment with Chamisa at national hero Oliver Mukudzi’s burial in Madziva on Sunday, ‘revealed’ the nature of the ‘conversation’ he had with the popular opposition leader.
“Today, at the funeral of Dr Tuku, MDC leader Nelson Chamisa told me his party will no longer support any more demos against government.
“Our people know not peaceful protests, instead they burn property & loot shops. Demos don’t pay. So we agreed on quiet diplomacy, peaceful engagement,” Mutodi said in a tweet moments after the selfie.
His tweet refers to the violence that gripped the nation a fortnight ago during protests against increase in fuel prices. Dozens of shops countrywide were looted and property worth hundreds of thousands of dollars lost to theft, vandalism and arson.
MDC Supporters have since called on Chamisa to stop associating with ZANU PF leaders as they are out to bring him down.
