Zimbabweans must speak out on violence

Director of Post-Independence Survivors Trust director Felix Mafa Sibanda has said Zimbabweans must speak out concerning issues of violence so as to push the government to resolve the problems associated with the vice.

"I would like to sound a warning to Zimbabweans to speak out so that a healing process begins without fear or favour, without practical reparations and compensation to living one deceased victims there is no sustainable peace in the entire nation," he said.

"The perpetrators must come forward collectively or individually depending on the nature of crimes As a matter of expediency, the president Emmerson Mnangagwa should lead by example and unreservedly apologize to the people of Matabeleland and parts of the Midlands without mincing his words in contrary to the former president Robert Mugabe ,"moment of madness" syndrome."

Sibanda said to date that statement by former President Robert Mugabe is yet defined.

"We are still not aware who was mad then,him or victims of his 5th Brigade or his entire cabinet. All in all we expect ED to apologize unreservedly to the nation on Gukurahundi atrocities before assuming his presidential roles and duties," he said.
