Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>Zimbabwe\u2019s Information, Publicity and Broadcasting Services secretary, Nick Mangwana<\/b>, has said countries under sanctions have to find ways of circumventing the sanctions.<\/p>\n

His remarks come after Al Jazeera<\/b> released the 1st episode <\/b>of its documentary titled Gold Mafia<\/b> which is an expose of illicit trade in Zimbabwe\u2019s mining sector.<\/p>\n

has attracted brickbats after indirectly defending alleged gold smuggling exposed in Al Jeezera\u2019s documentary Gold Mafia: The Laundry Service.<\/p>\n

In a Twitter post seen by Pindula News, Mangwana said:<\/p>\n

Countries under Sanctions have to find ways of circumventing the sanctions. This may mean having to procure supplies through third parties or sell in a grey market. They pay pay a premium for this. This is exactly what the UN Rapporteur Alena Douhan was talking about #RussianOil<\/p>\n

The first of a four-part documentary was aired last week in which President Emmerson Mnangagwa\u2019s ambassador-at-large, Uebert Mudzanire, alias prophet Uebert Angel and the President\u2019s niece Henrietta Rushwaya were implicated in the alleged gold smuggling activities.<\/p>\n

The second episode of the documentary is scheduled to air this Thursday.<\/p>\n

Responding to Mangwana\u2019s Twitter post, Pedzisai Ruhanya<\/b>, the director of the Zimbabwe Democracy Institute Mangwana\u2019s tricks won\u2019t work. He posted on Twitter:<\/p>\n

A government spokesperson can\u2019t surely defend gold smuggling, corruption and Stone Age accumulation. This lie won\u2019t stick. Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe has spoken out that it\u2019s not sanctioned. This area is not Nick\u2019s zone of competence or expertise. We have RBZ digital footprints to falsify the lie by Nick.<\/p>\n

Nick Mangwana should read the propaganda model (Herman and Chomsky, 1988) and so clearly understand political communication in the digital age to avoid these childish rants.<\/p>\n

Award-winning journalist, Hopewell Chin\u2019ono<\/b>, responded to Mangwana\u2019s remarks saying the secretary was lying. He said:<\/p>\n

Mr Nick Mangwana is testing the waters; it is a futile attempt to defend gold smuggling using a lie. The RBZ Governor John Mangudya issued a statement… saying the bank is not sanctioned. Everything else is crude propaganda and lies.<\/p>\n

Before the first episode of the Al Jazeera documentary was screened, Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ) governor, John Mangudya said Zimbabwean exports and imports were not under sanctions.<\/p>\n

The documentary says Zimbabwe is engaged in illicit trade in gold to \u201ccircumvent international sanctions.\u201d<\/p>\n
