Said Chin\u2019ono:<\/p>\n<p>1. Jonathan Moyo can now fulminate all he likes, he simply ceased making practical political sense a long time ago, he is yesterday\u2019s man.<\/p>\n<p>All his rants are now just self-serving platitudes, rooted in political opportunism and personal attacks.<\/p>\n<p>He is a deliberate distraction!<\/p>\n<p>2. Jonathan Moyo and his sidekicks have been attacking us and myself specifically for no reason.<\/p>\n<p>Attacking Fadzayi Mahere and Nelson Chamisa with lies just to smear, with the help of a female lawyer in the background.<\/p>\n<p>He survives on attention, I will now IGNORE him and FOCUS!<\/p>\n<p>3. Jonathan Moyo did a lot of damage to people\u2019s lives.<\/p>\n<p>Journalists and media folks died after being ruthlessly kicked out of work for no reason except that they refused to be unprofessional<\/p>\n<p>Jonathan is the last person to give us lectures on morality and human decency!<\/p>\n<p>Last year Moyo reportedly offered to fund the training of the then Nelson Chamisa-led MDC Alliance ahead of the 2023 elections before he fell out with the opposition party, now CCC.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/zimbabwe\">Zimbabwe<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Zimbabwe.
