<\/div>Johannesburg – American entertainer Steve Harvey has been sucked into Zimbabwe’s\u00a0fractious\u00a0politics after the opposition MDC Alliance led by Nelson Chamisa persuaded him to delete a tweet in which he posted a video of the Victoria Falls.<\/p>\n
Matters came to a head after Harvey\u00a0posted the video showing a rainbow over the Victoria Falls, with an emoji of clapping hands.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Harvey’s tweet gained some traction with positive comments until the MDC Alliance got wind off it. The opposition party then persuaded the American comedian\u00a0to delete it.<\/p>\n
Dr Nkululekho Sibanda, spokesperson for Chamisa, claimed he had persuaded Harvey to delete the tourism promo tweet.<\/p>\n
“He is just making his money, I agree with you. Just got excited, the ZANU PF consultants in the US, got Steve Harvey\u00a0@IAmSteveHarvey\u00a0to tweet [email\u00a0protected], we got to him and he quickly deleted the post. They are failing, that is how bad they are. They are losing fast!” tweeted Sibanda.<\/p>\n
The MDC and the ruling Zanu-PF party led by President\u00a0Emmerson Dambudzo Mnangagwa\u00a0are at loggerheads. Hard-pressed Zimbabweans are restless. Discontent has been rising along with commodity prices.<\/p>\n
Joblessness is rife. Electricity and water are in short supply in many urban areas.<\/p>\n
Last week police clamped down on attempts by the MDC to hold demonstrations against the economic meltdown in Zimbabwe.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Harvey, the award-winning entertainer, businessman and philanthropist, is in South Africa where he will launch “Family Feud” the internationally acclaimed game show.<\/p>\n
