Mugabe march causes mayhem

The Zanu-PF youth league-led "million-man march" to perpetuate President Robert Mugabe's rule has reportedly left a trail of destruction in some parts of the country after opposition activists had their houses burnt for snubbing the event.

It also emerged that thousands of Zanu-PF youths were left stranded in Harare after the Wednesday event, which was a far cry from what party stalwarts had expected.

The main opposition MDC-T yesterday claimed its supporters in rural Zhombe, Midlands province, had their homes torched by suspected Zanu-PF activists for refusing to participate in the march, which failed to attract the targeted million supporters.
