Police on Sunday cleared the First Family of any wrongdoing, hours after First Lady Auxillia Mnangagwa challenged law enforcement agents to come clean on the authenticity of claims by one, Gift Karanda, that the gold found on Henrietta Rushwaya belonged to Auxillia and son Collins.
The Zimbabwe Miners Federation (ZMF) president, Rushwaya, was last week found with a 6kg gold haul on her at the Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport.
Upon Rushwaya’s arrest, her associate told police officers that the gold belonged to Auxillia and her son.
He further stated that Collins Mnangagwa, son to the First Lady was the person who was supposed to have taken the gold for export to Dubai United Arab Emirates.
The accusations riled the First Lady who Sunday came out guns blazing challenging the police to arrest her or clear her name, adding that continued silence by police was being misconstrued as a cover up.
“As First Lady, my duty is first and foremost to Zimbabwe as a nation.I serve each and every Zimbabwean whole heartedly and selflessly,” she said
“ “I am challenging the police through their relevant office to issue a statement,” she said.
The First Lady chastised the ZRP, saying their continued institutional silence could be mistaken for connivance.
“I am a strong advocate for transparency and honesty, and any continued silence by the police can be misconstrued as a cover up.
“If there is any incriminating evidence against me, I challenge the police to present it to the nation without fear or favour. If there be none, I also challenge the police to say so,” she said. ZimMorningPost
