THE Zimbabwe Republic Police yesterday dismissed reports on social media that First Lady Auxillia Mnangagwa was involved in an accident, injuring a seven-year-old girl.
In a statement, police spokesperson Assistant Commissioner Paul Nyathi warned the media to avoid sensationalising a clear accident scene.
“The police dismissed all social media posting insinuating that the road traffic accident was caused by the First Lady Amai Auxillia Mnangagwa’s convoy,” he said.
“The convoy only passed through the scene after the road accident had already taken place, with the First Lady offering assistance and sympathy to the victim.
Last month, the First Lady’s convoy was involved in a nasty accident while travelling to Muzarabani, resulting in one of her security aides, Albert Vunganai, losing his life and three others seriously injured.
