PRESIDENT Emmerson Mnangagwa must appear before the Kgalema Motlanthe led commission of inquiry probing the post-election violence which left six people dead and several others injured in Harare on 1 August 2018 after Mnangagwa was confirmed winner of the crunch July 30 elections., an activist cleric has demanded.

Zimbabwe Devine Destiny executive director Bishop Ancelimo Magaya said Mnangagwa must appear before the commission since he is the commander-in-chief of the military.

"Murder was committed on the first of August," said Magaya recently.

"What happened revolves around the leader. The one who actually formed the inquiry (team should), in my opinion, (be) a subject of inquiry himself."

Deadly violence rocked Harare on the first of August after Mnangagwa was confirmed winner of the crunch July 30 elections.
