The private media should shun castigating First Lady Amai Grace Mugabe’s Meet-the-People rallies as she is playing her rightful role as the mother of the nation, Tehillar Christian Network founder Reverend Sam Malunga, has said.
Rev Malunga, in a statement supported by Pastor Regina Gata and Prophetess Nomsa of the United Kingdom of God Church, said such utterances were being exhibited by the private media which wanted to please the country’s detractors.
He called on churches to expose and dismiss the reports with the contempt they deserved.
“TCN Religious Institutions and Faith-based organisations across the religious divide applaud, commend, as well as welcome Amai Grace Mugabe’s visits nationwide as the mother of the nation to fulfil her God-given calling alongside the Head of State and Government President Mugabe,” he said
“Anti-government media practitioners should shun castigating Amai Mugabe’s entourage nationwide. Such media are on rampant expeditions to please national detractors by reporting negatively against Government, the First Lady and the Head of State.”
Rev Malunga said Amai Mugabe was a role model as witnessed by the compassion she has in caring for the underprivileged.
He said women cross the political divide should emulate and complement her vision in working hard to build the nation.
“Amai Grace Mugabe is a role model and pacesetter to the women of Zimbabwe and should be emulated for calling on the nation not to look to the West for aid, but be able to realise God’s blessing in our nation by working hard to build it,” he said.
“The First Lady has been connecting with the people during her tours which have seen her visit nine provinces and is left with Bulawayo.
Since she took over as the secretary for Zanu-PF Women’s Affairs, the private media has been on a deliberate onslaught to portray the First Lady negatively.
Such media has also been seeking to de-legitimise her role in national politics.
