By Own Correspondent- Deputy minister of Information and Publicity Energy Mutodi has told the church to stop pushing for dialogue until opposition leader Nelson Chamisa acknowledges President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s legitimacy.

Mutodi, who on Thursday blasted Chamisa for “sticking to the election mode and playing difficult over election results” implored the church to evaluate Chamisa’s political maturity before prayer marching Mnangagwa into dialogue.

He said:

“Following Nelson Chamisa’s offside statements that he does not recognise President Mnangagwa, I think churches must not prayer march the Zanu Pf government into dialogue without first evaluating the political immaturity and barrenness of opposition players.
