Ten Movement for Democratic Change activists belonging to the Welshman Ncube faction were today detained by police in Glenorah (Harare). The activists were on recruitment drive in the district. The MDC led by Welshman Ncube has been in an aggressive recruitment drive of late. The ten were accused of engaging in door to door campaign without police clearance.
Kurauone Chihwayi, the Deputy National Spokeperson for the party said this is an orchestrated plan to frustrate their efforts to campaign, he said his party will not be intimidated.
"The MDC once again views this as a clearly orchestrated plan by the same police details to frustrate the efforts of creating a just and a fair Zimbabwe. We once again wish to make known publicly that MDC will not be intimidated by these actions of desperation. The pursuit of a just and affair Zimbabwe is in full swing and has undoubtedly become the road sign to a democratic Zimbabwe," said Mr Chihwayi.
Mr Chihwayi said when they made the resolution to engage in a door to door campaign, they were aware that it will not be an easy ride.
"When the MDC made a resolution to mobilise in every valley, village and suburbs of this country, we were aware of such elements, and we know very well that the determination of the people will bring down the walls of this dictatorship. We also wish to warn those that have allowed themselves to be used as instruments of oppression that the end of this regime is nigh and all the collaborators of this diabolic rule will be brought to account for their actions."
