Vice President says allegations against him that he was involved in intimate relationships with various women are false and well-choreographed attempts to demean and soil his image.
Addressing a press conference at his Munhumutapa government offices Wednesday, Mohadi said he was a victim of political machinations through hacking and voice cloning.
“Following the recent social media hype about my alleged illicit relationship with two married women, I have decided to come open and respond to the allegations being peddled by my detractors,” he said.
“Despite growing impatient because of weird character assassination, I wish to categorically state the allegations brought against me are not only false but well-choreographed to demean, condescend and soil my image as a national leader.”

“Despite the noisy in digital ecologies, I wish to state that I am innocent and a victim of political machinations being peddled through hacking and voice cloning.
“Despite the density of the allegations being levelled against me, I salute the support from fellow citizens, colleagues and comrades who fully grasped the rigid complexities of concocted enemy attacks. It is against this backdrop that I am categorically distancing myself from the imagined immoral unions.
“The camaraderie and support given to me during this trying hour is greatly appreciated. That these faceless netizens have blended well-networked digital architecture to re-engineer the space for political demonisation, will not dampen my spirit as a tried and tested cadre,” he added.
Mohadi said President Emmerson Mnangagwa was going to determine his future before ending his speech and declined to take any questions from journalists.
