ZBC’s Reuben Barwe has just made a live video call to former finance minister Patrick Chinamasa about their death claims. The two are among few Zanu PF officials who have spoken openly about their Covid-19 status after it was reported on Friday that a number of ruling party bigwigs are on death beds due to Covid-19.
Chinamasa said he is tired and exhausted from being killed through the social media.
