A lingering & troublesome issue out of George Charamba’s public service yet to be told revolves around his intense Banana years between 1984 and 1987, when he served as Banana’s Press Secretary & closest aide. History does not forget. And it does not lie! 

Jonathan Moyo promised to post online a comprehensive thread revealing details about George Charamba(author of UNDER THE EAVES) and other hitherto unknown details about him, ‘some of which are horrifying.’ Charamba is the Press Secretary in the Office of the President of Zimbabwe.

Below are posts done by Prof moyo via his micro blog:

–Y’all called it right. The author of “UNDER THE EAVES with Igomombe” in @HeraldZimbabwe on Saturdays is good ol’ chicken George Charamba. It’s a doomed reincarnation of “THE OTHER SIDE with Nathaniel Manheru”. A case of the old resurfacing as new, like the NEW DISPENSATION!

–AN EARLY WARNING TO GEORGE CHARAMBA: You did the Nathaniel Manheru column under the old constitution. Zimbabwe adopted a new Constitution in 2013. Don’t be stupid. Take care. The stuff you wrote about Mutamangira is garbage. There’s unimpeachable evidence aliunde. Shut up!

—George Charamba is a civil servant. Yet he acts like a politician & is now tackling opposition politicians “UNDER THE EAVES” on behalf of #ZanuPF & its causes in blatant violation of s200 of the new Constitution which came into full effect on 22/8/13. The law will visit him!

–Before he is visited by the law sooner or later, whatever Charamba believes about Mnangagwa’s or Chiwenga’s control of the judiciary, it is necessary & only right that Charamba’s unconstitutional #ZanuPF participation in politics be dealt with politically; hence this thread!

–Charamba struts like a peacock in the media & the civil service & masquerades as the voice of the system (“nhuta”) to the disgust of other permanent secretaries whose disdain of him is legendary. He imagines he has influence in the media, yet the sector is scornful of him!

–Perhaps one telling example of how useless Charamba is in the world of real politik is the widespread ridicule he has invited upon Chiwenga by writing speeches full of English words that poor Chiwenga can’t pronounce like this case at the launch of the voodoo manifesto!
–Yet to be released are hateful press briefs that Charamba used to give to President Mugabe at a regular senior staff briefing to the president that met & took decisions every Monday. Charamba used to be the most vocal, most alarmist & his briefs incite the arrests of many!
–Despite the affection Charamba faked for President Mugabe, the untold truth is that he in fact has a longstanding personal grudge against President Mugabe, and especially Amai Mugabe, connected to the misfortunes of a Ms Kadungure, Charamba’s relative. Let him say nyoo!
–From 1984 to 1987 George Charamba was seconded as Press Secretary to then President of Zimbabwe, Rev. Canaan Sodindo Banana. Charamba was Banana’s closest officer. Among many as yet untold tasks, he was instrumental in helping Banana compile & edit TURMOIL & TENACITY!
–TURMOIL & TENACITY: ZIMBABWE, 1890-1990 is a must-read on the country’s state politics. Charamba’s finger prints & prejudices, which he still exhibits, are all over the text. Mnangagwa hates the book because of the truth told about him in late Dr N Shamuyarira’s chapter!
–A lingering & troublesome issue out of George Charamba’s public service yet to be told revolves around his intense Banana years between 1984 and 1987, when he served as Banana’s Press Secretary & closest aide. History does not forget. And it does not lie!
