Responding to the news article, Fadzayi Mahere curtly dismissed it as fake. Writing on Facebook, Mahere said:

This story circulating on WhatsApp is fake news.

The issue of health is very critical for public office holders or aspirants as the constitution states that a sitting president can be removed from office for his or her “inability to perform functions of the office because of physical or mental incapacity.”

The issue was topical during the late former president Robert Mugabe‘s era. Some said his old age and poor health made him frail and unfit for the office of the president.
