new CIO Boss Isaac Moyo

Staff Reporter| As Zimbabwe wakes up to a new CIO boss, people have begun asking questions on what is now to be of the nation particularly under a new President who is however not so so new since he is the very man who presided over the massacre of more than 20,000 Zimbabweans in the early 1980s, Emmerson Mnangagwa – are we thus now to see more being abducted and killed?

AnalysisPresident Mnangagwa appointed the country’s new Director General, Ambassador Isaac Moyo during the week.

Who is Isaac Moyo and what is he likely to do in the next 5 years, particularly during the upcoming 2018 elections knowing that previous elections since 1980 have been characterised by voter intimidation and even the killing of political opponents? Is the CIO now to transform into a professional force that investigates real security crimes not political spoofs? It is for these fears that many Zimbabweans suspect that a personal choice of Mnangagwa’s (a Karanga man, Moyo) could only be a brutal character. This is one side of the viewpoint.

Others however have a different story. One acquaintance of Moyo’s writing on ZimEye.com on Friday said Moyo is a respectable family man. Mr Godfrey Chimutashu said “Isaac Moyo a true son of Zim. Graduated at the then university of Rhodesia in 1979 and joined government service soon after 1980, and has served as a servant of the people.”

Isaac Moyo is “a family man,” concluded Mr Chimutashu as he wrote on ZimEye.

To appear to strengthen that belief, a ZANU PF leader, the current party chairman for the UK, Nick Mangwana also quipped in in Moyo’s support. “I think the new CIO DG, Ambassador Isaac Moyo is a decent person,” wrote Mangwana on his Twitter portal during the week.”

He continued stating that, “during the Xenophobia attacks in SA, he was hands on, responsive and could answer texts and phone calls anytime of the day.

“If he brings this care for humanity to the job then the President is into something great.”

What are your own views?

  1. Why identify an accomplished Zimbabwean as either Karanga, Ndebele, Zezuru etc. Very retrogressive thinking.

  2. “Presided over the massacre of 20 000…” is not factual. Mugabe presided over Gukurahundi and everyone knows it. Mugabe was president and the buck stopped with him. He ordered the tribal purging because of his fear of Joshua Nkomo. Appointing a new CIO boss does not mean any more killing either. That is deplorable sensational reporting.
