PRESIDENT Emmerson Mnangagwa is not reading too much into rants made by former President Robert Mugabe at the weekend, saying his predecessor was entitled to his opinion. Mugabe let rip at Mnangagwa on Saturday in a speech believed to have been made at his plush Borrowdale mansion during celebrations to mark his 95th birthday organised by the Zimbabwe Assemblies of God Church.
But Mnangagwa, through his spokesperson George Charamba, laughed off Mugabe’s attack.
“Even in the village, there are old people with a right to an opinion. We don’t have time for that. Everyone has a prerogative of opinion,” Charamba said somewhat dismissively.
Information ministry secretary Ndavaningi Mangwana said Mugabe could not be held responsible for his actions, given his advanced age.
“Former President Mugabe is an elderly man whose age is quite advanced. At that age, people tend to have some feebleness of the mind.
“That state of decrepitude manifests in different ways. Some of the ways are that one is taken advantage of by having words deceptively attributed to them and, in other cases, manipulated to say things they have no lucidity or presence of mind to make sense of,” Mangwana said.
“But, whatever the case, most people who are 95 cannot be held responsible for their actions or words and our former President is no superman. We will continue to remember the positives he contributed to our country and learn from the mistakes he made and still makes in his fallibility as a man of advanced age.”
