Mthwakazi Liberation Front has blasted the police for their brutality on the Shutdown protestors last week a development which is said to have caused the death of some youth in Makokoba in Bulawayo following their brutal assault.
Party's Bulawayo spokesperson Ndabezinhle Fuyane said the acts by the security agents in Makokoba and other related areas of a door-door exercise of arrests cannot go a long way before they can challenge it as a state whose mandate is to free them from "this regime."
"If the perpetrators were known why then is the exercise conducted. That is pure insanity which will not be tolerated. That was pure gukurahundism,the moment of madness as may be described by other philosophers," he said.
"Citizens conducting peaceful demonstrations are arrested,the violent ones are also arrested, so what kind of approach does this government want to be used to address our plight as an endangered nation,a defenceless nation."
"We never heard such act in other parts of Zimbabwe but alas here in the middle of Mthwakazi," xola mthakathi,imizamo yakho ngiyibhekile," this is not a threat, but where are we going to get peace? When are going to be peaceful. How are we supposed be peaceful when there is no peace in our land. Cry my beloved Mthwakazi !!!" he added.
