International community has failed Mthwakazi on Gukurahundi

Mthwakazi Republic Party has said the international community has failed Mthwakazi people by remaining silent on the issue of Gukurahundi which has remained unsolved for 36 years.

The party said the exposure of what we already know by CIA proves that the world knows about our case so why won't they act against the criminals starting with Robert Mugabe, Sydney Sekeramayi, and Emerson Mnangagwa as the chief culprits alive?

"The silence by the international community is very scary considering that Sydney Sekeramayi and Emerson Mnangagwa are leading a faction within Zanu PF and are geared up to take over from Mugabe. This is bad news for Matabeleland because we are most likely to suffer another Gukurahundi genocide as part of their strategy of securing their strong hold on power," Mbonisi Gumbo the MRP spokesperson said.

"It is public knowledge that Zanu PF is an enemy of the people of Matabeleland and since 1980 these people have made it a point that they employ all satanic gimmicks ranging from mercilessly killing innocent Ndebele people, forcing them into exile while sharing Mthwakazi land among the Shona tribe as part of disempowering us. Already known Ndebele people like Professor Jonathan Moyo and others have made it clear that they won't support Mnangagwa's Presidency, in response we all so how he has been persecuted for that and its very clear that the Ndebele people in Zanu PF will be at serious risk of assassinations or unreasonable arrests and political Parties like MRP will obviously be in danger of such, under Mnangagwa's leadership."

He said he have been reading the CIA classifieds with a kin interest in knowing whether the International community really know exactly why  people were killed by the North Korean trained 5th brigade?

"To my surprise the CIA clearly states that Mugabe wanted to secure his presidency and again the CIA knows that the 5th Brigade was all Shona working against the Ndebele people and that this was tribal motivated. So why is Mugabe still waking Scot free? Why is Mnangagwa not being arrested and tried at the International Criminal Court ICC? Is it because Ndebele people are less important in this world or is it because the International powerful countries participated and are accomplices in this matter?" he said.

"We are aware that the British and its allies were fighting against Russia which was at the time a friend of ZAPU. But that does not mean that they shouldn't act, we demand justice in our life time, justice delayed is justice denied, therefore now is the time for the whole World to help Matabele people get justice. Mugabe and his Zanu PF thugs by killing thousands of our people they were sending the message that they don't want to co-exist with us and we have had his massage loud and clear and we now want our own State of Mthwakazi Restored. So that we may live in peace and we call upon Britain and its allies to help us to get our State back."

He said Britain should on Humanitarian grounds immediately remove the Rule by Conquest policy on Matabeleland and help us by publicly acknowledge the Jameson line border between Mthwakazi and Zimbabwe to secure a peaceful resolution between us and Zimbabwe.

"We have suffered for so long first in the hands of the British colonial system and now under the ruthless leadership of Mugabe and his Zanu PF.  We are fully convinced that Britain has a major role to play in Mthwakazi's quest for self-determination and independence from Zimbabwe. Even now as we are gearing for elections our future is not certain we don't know what will happen to us, because all the aspiring Presidential candidates in Zimbabwe are all criminals who have a hand in Gukurahundi genocide," he said.

"Talk of Morgan Tsvangirai who was a Zanu PF youth leader during the disturbances and there are incidences where he is said to have personally participated in this satanic act of hate against the Ndebele people, Joyce Mujuru another Presidential candidate and possible President after Mugabe is also directly involved in Gukurahundi genocide both herself and her husband held powerful positions in Mugabe's government during the period 1982 to 87 and never said a word against such and in fact her husband was army boss during this sad period. Emerson Mnangagwa is actually the chief culprit and Simba Makoni the architect of the 1979 grand plan which brought about the genocide as part of creating a one party state and eliminate the Ndebele tribe, are all likely to take over from Mugabe. And this is not good for Mthwakazi it actually send fear to us there is no hope for us under the leadership of such people."

Gumbo said the future is uncertain thus why they are calling for their own separate state as it were before 1893.

"The 2018 elections are very key in MTHWAKAZI STRUGGLE in fact we as MRP we call them a Free Matabeleland Referendum we know that the elections will be rigged but never the less we are determined to make sure that there is no free entry in Mthwakazi for the above bloody thirst criminals and their parties. We will make sure they don't just do as they wish in our land," he said.
 
"One of The United States of America's former ambassadors in Zimbabwe once said Britain was too busy to deal with Gukurahundi genocide, we hopefully think this time around they won't be too busy when Zanu PF starts killing us as is expected during this period since they already started their senseless and illegal arrests against us. Emerson Mnangagwa should know that we hate him the same way we do to Robert Mugabe and all his cabal of criminals' masquerading as politicians."

He said the CIA report states that Mugabe felt insecure with Dr. Joshua Mqabuko NKomo and his ZAPU outfit which led him to do the most insensitive action of killing innocent citizens just so that he feels secured, but unfortunately for him he was never secure, and whoever is coming in as President in Zimbabwe will still have that same feeling as long as the Gukurahundi genocide issue.

"Mthwakazi restoration is not settled and the option available for whoever is coming in is either negotiate with us and settle the Mthwakazi question or resort to yet another Gukurahundi genocide," he said.

"Because on our part we will not just keep quiet, we will not rest until justice is saved. Those who claim Gukurahundi Genocide issue is water under the bridge are day dreaming in fact they are fools. We would like to warn Both Thokozani Khuphe MDC-T Vice President and Zanu PF Vice President Phelekezela MPhoko to shut up and enjoy their personal benefits they get from Mashonaland at our expense instead of provoking us they are both quoted in the press speaking ill of Mthwakazi. Khuphe reportedly said Mthwakazi is already for MDC-T and that Mthwakazi already supports Tsvangirai which is not true, as we believe the 2013 elections were rigged in favor for both Zanu and MDC-T. While Mphoko said the Gukurahundi issue was dealt with by Dr J Nkomo and Mugabe which is a blue lie, there is no such thing how can he say it's settled when the perpetrators still deny it happened?"

He said first and foremost Zanu PF must accept responsibility of Gukurahundi genocide, Gukurahundi is still about 30 years old which is still very fresh and we demand justice now, to think that it will just disappear is just wishful thinking.

 "Remember the Israelites spent more than 400 years in Egypt but still knew who they were. And eventually left Egypt for Canaan no matter how Pharaoh oppressed them they never lost their identity and like them Mthwakazi will not loose her identity and will eventually go to Canaan. Jesus will not come to take us to Heaven while we are still not free because our people still have bitterness and that will mean all Mthwakazi people may go to hell GOD FORBID. Our freedom is as near as Jesus's second coming," Gumbo said.

"We read elsewhere that the Americans and Britain together with her allies are privately discussing the Mugabe exit and possibly Mnangagwa's take over. That move will be seriously be resisted by our people. You should be negotiating with the ICC on how to arrest the Gukurahundi genocide perpetrators starting with Mugabe and Mnangagwa and take them to the Hague not State House. You should be by now discussing how to peacefully give us our father land. We also appeal to the International community to make sure the elections are free and fair."

He said there must be a way to allow particular citizens to choose their future path through self-determination.

"It remains a fact that Zimbabwe and Mthwakazi are two separate states which were forcefully merged together by the colonialists in 1923 without our consent, ever since then we have never been asked if we want to remain under this setup or not," he said.

"As a God fearing Christian in Mthwakazi I hope and believe the Mthwakazi issue will be amicably solved soon so that everyone will be free to move on with life as of now, we are living on a time bomb anything can happen, because the people of Matabeleland are angry over the treatment they are under and the international community is not helpful either. The revelations by CIA comes as good news to us, hope the CIA classifieds will reach everywhere though some of the information is debatable especially about the so called dissidents, we believe that was a creation of Zanu PF government and its partners in crime to soil Dr Nkomo and ZAPU's reputation."
