Green Bombers Vow To Die For First Family Amid Intra-Party Fights
Published: 2016 February 19 06:50:54 (3211 Views)
ZANU PF youths in Masvingo have openly declared allegiance to First Lady Grace Mugabe, saying anyone who opposes her was against President Robert Mugabe.
Addressing a Press conference yesterday, Zimbabwe Youth Council provincial chair, Talent Chivhange, who was flanked by other youths from the national youth service, popularly known as Green Bombers, said no one could claim to like the President without liking his wife.
“The President does not live in isolation. He is married to Dr Grace and we will defend the interests of the First Family. The First Family deserves all our support,” he said.
Biggy Kwangwa, a member of the Munhumutapa Young People Business Association and a graduate of the National Youth Service programme, said some in the party were attacking Mugabe indirectly by criticising his wife.
“Some are using hidden innuendos to tarnish the President’s image. We read between the lines what they are saying. We are prepared to defend him with our blood.
“As long as it is something to do with the President, we will die for him,” he said.
Another youth leader, Talent Majoni, said they would defend Mugabe’s legacy “violently or otherwise”. Their sentiments came as war veterans aligned to their leader Chris Mutsvangwa were tear-gassed by the police in Harare and had their meeting stopped.
