The Information Minister Monica Mutsvangwa has told journalists to report positively about Emmerson Mnangagwa and state that he is freeing Zimbabweans.

Speaking at a media Workshop in Mutare, she said Zimbabwe has had several centuries of colonial oppression. She appeared to blame  the said centuries of Emmmerson Mnangagwa’s failure to reform.

“In that regard, it is counting on the full support of the media fraternity to tell the Zimbabwean story as it is, bearing in mind the factual historical development of centuries of imperial domination, decades of the liberation struggle and post-independence achievements and development challenges.”

Mutsvangwa said Mnangagwa was a genuine and committed reformer.

“He (Mnangagwa) wants Zimbabweans to fully enjoy the freedoms entrenched in the 2013 Constitution,” she said
