Tinashe Chiname aka Shef Gulaz |
PowerFM’s Tinashe Chiname this morning assumed presidential
spokesperson George Charamba’s role, firing a broadside at US-based chimurenga
music maestro Thomas Mapfumo for seeking to personally engage President Robert
Mugabe over the high level of piracy in Zimbabwe.
Mukanya, as Mapfumo is known to his legion of fans, decried
how music is being sold for a dollar and urged authorities to do more and curb
piracy.
“Ndekupi kwawakamboonawo
music inotengeswa dhora?”(Where
have you ever seen music being sold for a dollar?), he was quoted as saying
during an interview with a journalist earlier this week.
Playing Mapfumo’s classic “Madhebhura” on his Power Weekend Breakfast
with Shef Gulaz show at 0843hrs (Zim time) Chiname went on to suggest that
Mugabe can only engage Zimbabweans within the country, and not those in the
diaspora.
“How can the President speak with you when you are that far?
He has no time for those outside the country, and speaks with people who are in
Zimbabwe…,” said Chiname.
PowerFM radio station falls under the ZBC.
