HARARE (NewsoftheSouth) – The family of the late General Vitalis Musungwa Gava Zvinavashe has disowned one Edith Chibhamu who has been running for Children of War Veterans Association (COZWA) presidency.
Chibhamu has been running under the impression that she is one of the late General’s daughter, which the family has declined through their spokesperson one Dr A. P Zvinavashe.
Commenting on the statement, Dr Zvinavashe said, “What is misleading,offensive and defamatory however is the allegation contained therein that the said Ms Edith Chibhamu is the daughter of the Late General Zvinavashe.This allegation is false and misleading”.
The family said General Zvinavashe was survived by his wife and 11 children, of which Edith Chibhamu is not one of them. Dr Zvinavashe said COZWVA should stop peddling such falsehood and the public should know that this position is not true.
“The Zvinavashe family is not privy to and dissociates itself categorically and emphatically from the political ambitions and indeed public and private activities and affairs of Ms Edith Chibhamu,” the statement read.
In addition to disassociating themselves from Chibhamu, the family said members of the public are warned that the Zvinavashe family and it’s related entities are not liable to any actions done by the said family.
“Members of the public are warned that the Zvinavashe family and it’s related entities will not accept any responsibility or liability that may have been or will be caused by or to anyone relying on the misleading statement from COZWVA”.
Dr Zvinavashe said the family have submitted a cease and desist letter to COZWVA in order to correct their misleading post.
