Former MDC legislator Eddie Cross on Thursday addressed the Cape Town Press Club in Cape Town, South Africa. According to ZANU PF Patriots, here are highlights of what he said:
-
Grace Mugabe was prepared to even murder President Mnangagwa.
-
SA agreed and China gave coup go-ahead. It was done extremely efficiently – Police was disarmed – Army took control – it was legitimate, a military-assisted transition, not a coup because the population supported it.
-
G40 held 100seats and were intended to remove ED but he survived the election by the skin of his teeth.
-
Mnangagwa is committed to reform. He has not received sufficient recognition for what he has done. But he has to deal with recalcitrant elements in his party. – Intelligence sources suggest G40 buying weapons.
-
Mnangagwa reduced police hierarchy, fired the militia – the security committee no longer running the politics -Moving towards a civil democracy. Zimbabwe has gone from a 40% deficit to a balance of payment surplus – by the end of next quarter Zim will have a floating currency.
