Mutasa and Mliswa before forgiving them


The MDC-T members have demanded that former vice president Joice Mujuru and former secretary for administration Didymas Mutasa to reveal what they did to several MDC-T supporters who were killed during the 2008 elections and those who disappeared to date.

The MDC's American Chapter posted on Facebook that Mujuru, Mutasa, Rugare Gumbo  and Themba Mliswa must first shed light on what they did to the members of the MDC-T at that time when they were staunch members of the ruling party when it unleashed violence against opposition political party.

The chapter listed Shepherd Jani as number 96 in the party's honour of the fallen members.

The chapter said Jani  was an MDC Senatorial candidate in Murewa 2008 and was abducted by Zanu-PF youths and State security. He died 25 May 2008.

The 2008 elections were held in March and the presidential run off was held in June the same year after MDC- T leader Morgan Tsvangirai had won the first round of polls with a margin that did not enable him to assume power.

Vengai Moyo agreed with the party saying if Mujuru were serious about apologising to the people of Zimbabwe for taking party in the dirty Zanu-PF leadership style they must expose all what they did together with their former colleagues during their time in Zanu-PF.

The calls come at a time when Mujuru recently apologised to the nation for taking part in the Zanu-PF misrule for 35 years.
