Fake Sean Mnangagwa Scams Public

In a separate incident, an unknown number of people were scammed out of their hard-earned money by an individual pretending to be President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s son Sean and conning people in shady fuel deals. The scheme was brought to light by Information Secretary Nick Mangwana on Saturday.

Taking to his verified X (formerly Twitter) account, Mangwana warned the Zimbabwean public not to fall for the con.

Please don’t be hustled out your moneys trying to make a quick buck,” Mangwana posted.
