In news just filtering the airwaves, Deputy Information Minister, Energy Mutodi has been fired from his post in government with immediate effect.

Mutodi was Deputy Minister of Information Publicity and Broadcasting Services deputising Monica Mutsvangwa whom he seemed to have often raffled feathers with during the duration of his stay in the Ministry.

In a letter, the Presidential Communications Department announced the development without giving the reasons for the sacking.

“The Chief Secretary in the office of the President and Cabinet, Dr. M.J.M Sibanda has announced the the termination of employment by His Excellence the President Cde E.D Mnangagwa of Dr. Energy Mutodi as Deputy Minister of Government in the Ministry of Information, Publicity and Broadcasting Services. The termination which is with immediate effect, is in terms of Section 108(1a) of the Constitution of Zimbabwe (Amendment No. 20) of 2013,” reads the letter from the President’s office.

Mutodi had become synonymous with reckless and provocative statements on Twitter which could have triggered this action by the President.

Below are some of Mutodi’s priced tweets.

  1. 10 May. “Stampede for food. These families in Domboshava interrupted my sleep in the chilly Sunday morning as they jostled & shoved each other by the gate to the MP’s house, expecting anything they can take home to save starving children. Help someone during this lockdown. Donate food. The little I got they took it all. I am appealing to well wishers to help me feed these people.”
  2. 12 May. “Living in fear of the Chris Mutsvangwa-SB Moyo coalition. I hope it won’t resort to wartime tactics. Appealing for prayers.”
  3. 15 May. “Number of fake abductees is increasing with Joana Mamombe joining the list. Meanwhile, MDC MPs have ditched embattled leader Nelson Chamisa en masse, asking him to join the Extra-Ordinary Congress proceedings in order to resolve his illegitimacy.”
  4. 18 May. “MDC Chamisa supporters are circulating a fake conversation on social media suggesting government is siding with the Khupe/Mwonzora faction. The falsehoods should be dismissed with the contempt they deserve.”
  5. 20 May. “Details emerge MDC youths Joana Mamombe, Netsai Marova & Cecilia Chimbiri went out for a romantic night to Bindura with their lovers who are artisanal miners. They parked their car at a police station for safety but tragedy struck when they demanded foreign currency for services.”
