Former opposition Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) politician, Obert Gutu has revealed that he regrets calling for the imposition of sanctions on Zimbabwe, describing his involvement as ‘the work of demons and evil spirits’.
The lawyer-cum-politician took to his micro-blogging Twitter handle to tell netizens that the ‘biggest mistake’ he made in his political carreer was ‘passionately’ calling for the imposition of sanctions on Harare by the West.
“Biggest mistake I made in my political career was to actively associate myself with & passionately call for the imposition of punitive & illegal sanctions against Zim. It could only have been the work of demons & evil spirits. I’m glad I have now been cleansed of these demons,” Gutu tweeted.
Below, we have selected some of the reactions to Gutu’s tweet.
