Rodney Dangarembizi has denied Zanu-PF national secretary for youth affairs Kudzanayi Chipanga’s statement that he authored the press statement which denigrated the Zimbabwe Defence Forces and its commander General Constantino Chiwenga.
Dangarembizi said that Chipanga should own up to his mistake and not implicate him. Said Dangarembizi:
