#Remorse Zimbabwe government spox Nick Mangwana has apologized after pitching a bogus conspiracy saying hostile doctors were deliberately killing government officials following the death of several current and past bureaucrats from Covid-19. “I withdraw and apologize,” he says.

Mangwana who was responding to a William Zambezi on Twitter said:

I expressed my personal view on an issue a Dr had tweeted on. I had no intention to offend any doctor or call any of them names. Since it has caused such offence, I withdraw it & apologise for any offence caused. I just hope we can move and not be distracted from work at hand.
