Opposition parties and protest movements under Nera has castigated Home Affairs Minister Ignatius Chombo for threatening to arrest those criticizing the First Family.
This comes after Chombo said police must arraign everyone criticizing the First Family in apparent reference to ZNLWVA secret ary general Victor Matemadanda who came out recently with a T-shit which castigated First Lady as a bad mother.
Meanwhile, President Robert Mugabe (93) needs to rein in his wife, Grace, and stop her from usurping executive powers, opposition parties and analysts have said.
Grace has virtually been worming her way into executive functions, including publicly ridiculing public servants as well as donating State-sourced farming inputs to Zanu-PF members, in the process raising the ire of opposition forces.
Former Zanu-PF Mashonaland West provincial chairman and current Norton lawmaker Temba Mliswa (independent) said that Grace had no business in executive functions. Mliswa said it was sad that Grace was making statements on behalf of the executive.
