Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>PRESIDENT Emmerson Mnangagwa was called by his emissary Uebert Angel, unfortunately the phone call was not recorded, an Al Jazeera investigative journalist has claimed.<\/p>\n

According to the journalist who posed as Miss Sin, secretary to fake Chinese gangster Mr. Stanely in Al Jazeera\u2019s four-part Gold Mafia series, the call was made by Angel at a time she did not expect it and had no recording device on her.<\/p>\n

According to Sin, Mnangagwa offered part of the Zambezi River shores for development in his conversation with Angel. He even requested a one-on-one meeting with the team to finalise the deals.<\/p>\n

She said this while dissecting the two-year investigation on Al Jazeera\u2019s podcast.<\/p>\n

An initial meeting planned with Mnangagwa did not come to fruition after the journalists opted not to pay a US$200,000 \u2018facilitation fee\u2019 to Angel.<\/p>\n

Uebert Angel finally speaks on Gold Mafia; claims it was all an act, a classified national intelligence operation<\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cThis meeting is one of those I will never forget, one of my biggest regrets happens at this meeting. Ambassador Angel takes me away from the group, one on one and puts his finger to his lips to tell me to keep quiet, I did not have any recording devices on me because the other people on the team had them,\u201d said Sin.<\/p>\n

\u201cSometimes we would change it up a bit, who is recording and who is not.<\/p>\n

\u201cAngel dials who he tells me is President Emmerson Mnangagwa, so I am seated in the booth and hearing him speak to the President.<\/p>\n

\u201cA lot of it is in Shona but the President is talking about how we should do more than just the casino on the Victoria Falls, he says what about the Zambezi River and talks about how we should have a one-on-one meeting with him.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mnangagwa\u2019s wife Auxillia was recorded advising Angel to call him regards the mode of transportation for gold which was set to be smuggled out of the country.<\/p>\n

She said he had the final say.<\/p>\n

Angel, who according to Zanu PF strategist Acie Lumumba has been cleared of all suspicions that arose after the documentary, was the central figure who shared details and provided names and audios to the investigative team.<\/p>\n

He has claimed, through his lawyer Lovemore Madhuku, to have been on national duty, vetting the \u2018possible investors\u2019 before taking them to the President.<\/p>\n
