Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corporation Director of Radio Services, Robson Mhandu has survived the chop over allegations of sexual harassment.
The development has been kept a well-guarded secret but impeccable sources said Mhandu attended the disciplinary hearing recently, armed with a battalion of lawyers.
In this particular suspension and dramatic survival, he was accused of demanding sex from a female presenter to approve her transfer request from Bulawayo to Harare.
Audios have since leaked of Mhandu telling one Farai Juliet Magada, also known as Farie Jules, that she needed to “motivate me by work and number two, the obvious… it’s a combination of the two.”
“Tell me if you don’t want to do it and you’ll go back to Bulawayo.”
Magada asked Mhandu if her transfer was going to depend on sex and he responded by saying, “We don’t separate the two.”
“I will send you to Bulawayo, I have the power,” he threatened.
Mhandu added that his sexual demands are “the practical realities of life.”
In a strategic conversation, Magada asked if she was guaranteed a transfer if she gave him sex.
Mhandu responded: “It’s one million per cent guaranteed… Remember you moved from Khulumani FM to Classic 263 on my signature MaMoyo. Your talk of guarantees is purely a sign of disrespect from a typical Zimbabwean woman.”
Mhandu has been sucked into related allegations during his stint at ZIMRA and in his constituency in Chitungwiza where he fired blanks in an attempt to be elected legislator under the ZANU PF ticket.
