The Movement for Democratic Change led by Professor Welshmen Ncube is in a quandary as ambitious Member of Parliament for Bulawayo goes on a violent spree terrorizing youths against her rise to power, this publication has learnt. Jasmine Toffa is representing MDC under the proportional representation provision and has since not uttered a single word in parliament as she squanders her energy on her new found "Toyboy" name withheld.

Impeccable sources alleged that the province has been concerned by the behaviour of ruffians masquerading as bona fide youths under the influence of the member of the August House who has been involved in various violent confrontations with senior members of the party.

Contacted for comment by this reporter, Honorable Toffa rubbished the claims aiding that it was a fabrication by people who are jealous of her status of M.P. "honestly I am not even surprised to hear that there are people out there who can go to any lengths to try and soil my image and that of the party. Ever since I got my parliamentary vehicle, a couple of people have been jealous of me.

They have even resorted to giving me all sorts of nicknames, at one stage they used to call me "temperature" whatever that means," she said. When asked about her involvement (sexual) with one of the youths from MDC, she refused to comment.

"Zwana lapha Nkazana, if you have nothing to say go and ask your grandmother to tell you a folk tale, I am a divorced woman and my love life is none of your business uyezwa!"

Toffa, who together with her henchman Zibusiso Mhlanga have been on a trail of violence, intimidation and disorder. These acts are believed to be perpetrated against any youth perceived as a "threat" or "competition".

It is believed that sometime at the end of last year four members of the Bulawayo provincial youth assembly where on separate incidents abducted and assaulted, a move that has led to two members of the provincial executive seeking refuge in the United States and South Africa.

Youths who spoke on condition of anonymity (for fear of being beaten up) said Toffa has since conscripted more young men to be her henchmen. These are said to include Thembani Maphosa a self proclaimed intellectual of dubious credentials, whose only claim to fame is having spent some time at Bulawayo Remand Prison.
