BUHERA South MP Joseph Chinotimba (Zanu PF) has indirectly said First Lady Grace Mugabe and people who condemned him video for posting a video with the ailing musician Dickson Chingaira, popularly known as Cde Chinx are ‘rubbish’.
“Those who are talking rubbish have always been rubbish people.” said Chinotimba as reported by NewsDay.
Chinotimba said he posted the clip to dismiss falsehoods that Chinx had died.
Many people including Grace Mugabe, expressed great disappointment with people posting videos showing the singer admitted on a hospital bed.
On Thursday, Chinotimba handed over sofas worth $4 500 and dining chairs and a table worth almost $1 300 donated by Zanu PF secretary for administration Ignatius Chombo.
“I was pained, especially by falsehoods peddled that Cde Chinx was no more. I have done this (donation) to send a message to the nation that this is not right. What was happening on social media, even if people criticised me on why I released the video that Cde Chinx is still alive, I wanted to show the nation that it was not true, that he is alive (sic). All what I am doing is to show that he is alive,” he said.
Chinotimba also avoided responding directly to the First Lady’s reservations over the video as he kept justifying himself on the basis that he wanted to disprove the allegations that Cde Chinx was no more.
“I can only reply on why I took the video. I was angry that people were spreading lies that Cde Chinx had died,” he said.
Chinx who was admitted to West End Hospital in Harare and was rumoured to have died on several occasions last week, early this week managed to attend a handover ceremony of a house built by the Zimbabwe Music Awards (ZIMA) and its partners in his honour.
