Former Cabinet minister and interim chairperson of the opposition National People’s Party (NPP) has dared President Robert Mugabe to tell the country what happened to the late retired General Solomon Mujuru. Mavhaire accused Mugabe of knowing more than he is admitting about the death of Mujuru. Mavhaire also claimed that Mugabe only became the leader of Zanu-PF due to General Mujuru’s influence. Mujuru died after a mysterious fire engulfed his Beatrice Farm in 2011. Speaking at a rally in Beitbridge over the weekend, Mavhaire said:
You (Mugabe) know a lot, you cannot just say you don’t know. Why would this be the only thing you don’t know when you seem to know everything?
Such a big man like you should tell Zimbabweans what happened.
I want to tell you today it was the general who made Mugabe leader of Zanu PF, a lot of you did not know this, but we reveal it to you today.
