The first lady Auxillia Mnangagwa appears clad in two different church uniforms in the space of just over a week.
Mnangagwa was wearing a Methodist uniform on May 23, while on June 2, she was wearing an Anglican uniform.
Social media has now asked:
Which church does Mrs Mnangagwa go to?
The First Lady Auxillia Mnangagwa has slammed claims her modus operandi is becoming more similar to controversial former first lady Grace Mugabe who was accused of state capture, she says her work was restricted to humanitarian activities and had never dabbled in politics or hijacked any government programmes such that she could be compared with Grace.
Below is her full statement:
“I have never instructed any minister to do any work or even summoned anyone to my office. I spend much of my time in rural areas interacting with old people, even parents of these MDC officials who are complaining that I am taking over government business. It is wrong to try and compare me with Grace Mugabe,” she said.
I am not a government employee. I have no powers over ministers, but I just help in my role as the First Lady to raise awareness on health issues. I also take care of their mothers and their supporters.”
“I don’t get any cent from Treasury for all the projects I do. There are many people who support us and not even a single cent comes from government. People should appreciate that through my humanitarian work, I assist people across the political divide. I don’t select whether Zanu PF or MDC.
“In fact, we don’t want to see people wearing party regalia at our functions. I am doing my duties as the First Lady, which is social work, helping the needy where possible. I am not into politics.”
