Former president Robert Mugabe says President Mnangagwa thinks he is an idiot. He told Retired Brig General, Ambrose Mutinhiri that he will not negotiate with Mnangagwa.

“You know what, when this issue came up at my meeting with president Mugabe last Sunday, he was emphatic and unequivocal about his position. Let me recall what he told me about this,” the former Mashonaland East Provincial Affairs minister told The Standard.

“How does he think I believe their claim that they are about upholding the legacy of the president, my legacy, when I’m down because of them and when they have been dragging me in the mud?
“People, especially in Zanu PF, want honest holders of the legacy of the president and they condemn hypocrisy, they condemn military brutality against the people.”

He went on to say: “ED says he wants me to endorse him, what will I be endorsing? Hypocrisy? Brutality against the people? “The killing and battering of children (CIO and police officers) who worked with me? No, no, no; I’m not an idiot.

“The political and illegal arrests must stop if the military regime is true to its claims that it is about upholding the legacy of the president. Why is it doing these injustices?”
