Mthwakazi Republic Party has claimed that the happenings involving the Highlanders Football Club show that the Gukurahundi genovide is at play as the zeal by the powers that be to eliminate anything which has to do with the Ndebele tribe gears up.

There was reportedly violence in Zvishavane where Bosso was playing with FC Platinum which resulted to the premature end of the game.

MRP spokesperson Mbonisi Gumbo said there was violence yet again at Mandaba Stadium in Zvishavane.

"This is very sad, Philip Chiyangwa, Ezra Tshisa Sibanda, the Army and ZANU PF must be aware that what is happening with Highlanders fans is a manifestation of anger over unresolved issues in Matabeleland. It doesn't matter how much you fine Bosso even if its $2Milion or Billion dollars you will always come across such. The Bible says whatever you sow you shall reap," he said.

"Robert Mugabe's government when it came in 1980 it sowed hatred, tribalism, hate language against the Ndebele was promoted on all state media and today it is now reaping time prepare yourself for it."

The teams drew all one during the match.

Gumbo said Mugabe sent thousands of Ndebeles in SA and to Shonas are also following there, therefore Gukurahundi if it is returned it would be catastrophic because the young Ndebeles are willing to fight back and that is a course for concern.

"What do you think will happen to Shona people in SA if the government decides to persecute Mthwakazi citizens here? Be careful, please. I advise Mugabe and Zanu PF to began to engage political parties like MRP to negotiate a peaceful solution since the party seem to be the current favourite in Matabeleland. Ignoring Ndebele people won't solve anything," he said.

"Highlanders Football Club as an institution is an innocent bystander and a victim of Gukurahundi genocide. Therefore the issue of fans violence, can not be resolved at a board meeting somewhere at the Zifa Village in Harare. This, i don't care what some people will say is a political matter which needs a political solution."

He said the anger that is building up between the Shona and the Ndebele people is getting out of hand yet some clueless Zanu PF MPs still have the audacity to call Gukurahundi a closed chapter.

"Most of Shona people are now calling on Mugabe to bring back the second Gukurahundi genocide and completely wipe away all Ndebele people and its awash on Facebook, people need to be careful with sensitive issues," he said.

"I need to state that I am a very serious Christian who believe in peace and hopefully there shall be an amicable solution between Mthwakazi and Zimbabwe soon before this gets out of hand. Over the past years we have seen an increase of CIO, and other security details patrolling in our territory and obviously, the presence of POSA makes it difficult for citizens to sit and talk and be free to commemorate Gukurahundi genocide victims, the same way Zanu PF and Zanla does."

He said the only place where Ndebele people meet is when at Highlanders and therefore you will always come across such violent clashes as long as Mthwakazi issues are not solved and citizens are disgruntled personally and collectively #Asifunibumbulu ko Mthwakazi.
