Analysts yesterday said beleaguered Vice President Joice Mujuru’s statement against a slew of damning allegations, including corruption and a plot to assassinate President Robert Mugabe, has put the case to the court of public opinion. This comes as the Zanu PF number two has launched a spirited defence of her political and business life, and in which she has also said she is alive to the unconstitutional means to remove her from power — through the State media, and otherwise. Pedzisai Ruhanya, a media and democracy scholar, said: “She (Mujuru) did it properly. She put the case to the court of public opinion. The court of Zanu PF, public media, even the judiciary will muzzle her. “That’s why she decided to go to the broader court of public opinion which is the people of Zimbabwe. That is why that letter was addressed to the people of Zimbabwe. The people of Zimbabwe know that she does not have the evil mind to assassinate the president,” he said.
