Zimbabwe National Liberation War Veterans Association secretary general Victor Matemadanda said he will not defend the association’s chairperson Christopher Mutsvangwa.
This comes after Mashonaland West and Mashonaland East have resolved to recall Mutsvangwa as chairman of the association with other provinces saying they will meet over the matter. Matemadanda said he will only defend President Emmerson Mnangagwa. Said Matemadanda:
. . . (Acie) Lumumba said Mutsvangwa has his own people who want to invest in the fuel industry and are fighting others who are already in that industry. I have nothing to do with that and I am not going to involve myself in that. I am a simple farmer in Gokwe. I have no investment in the fuel industry or a relative with a service station. I don’t have an interest in the fuel industry which they are fighting for. So, they should not drag me in their wars. I don’t want to be involved and I am not going to fight for anyone this time around. If I am to fight, it has to be for the President because I have to defend my President not any other person.
