MLF does not support Mnangagwa's presidency

Mthwakazi Liberation Front has said they do not support the idea that former Vice President Emmerson Mnangagwa because he has a hand in the 20 000 people's killing in Matabeleland and Midlands in the 1980s.

This come at a time when President Robert Mugabe faces destroning and his days as president are numbered.

"We would therefore openly advice this General without fear of favour that, installing the BUTCHER of the Matebeles, Emmerson Mnangagwa, will directly result in the type of conflicts he mentioned in his statement," said the party.

"We are therefore in total agreement with the view expressed, not by the AU or SADC, BUT by the Organisation of Ermerging Africa States (OEAS), a superior continental organisation in thinking and philosophy than the AU and SADC combined, that the way forward in the imposed unitary state of present-day Zimbabwe should be the implementation of a TWO-STATES solution with immediate effect, MATEBELELAND and MASHONALAND, constituted and separated by the historic boundaries (borders) that were signed for by King Lobengula between Mthwakazi and Leander Starr Jameson representing Mashonaland (the Jameson line), and between Mthwakazi and Barotseland (present-day Zambia) and between Mthwakazi and Botswana (then Bechuanaland) and lastly between Mthwakazi and South Africa (then Transvaal)."

The party said all these borders were signed for by our King Lobengula and not a single one was ever signed for by Nehanda, Kagubi and or any of the grandparents of Shona people who today call themselves Zimbabweans.

"It cannot therefore be correct that the people of Mthwakazi as descendants of a great and properly constituted Kingdom of Mthwakazi which had diplomatic relations with the rest of the world must continue to benefit death, destruction and perpetual insignificance from Shona HEGEMONY as constructed and passed on by the British to Robert Gabriel Mugabe, Emmerson Mnangagwa and their butcher henchmen," said the party.

"As the people of Matebeleland (Mthwakazi), we have really tried to appeal for help regarding our plight throughout the world, but this world, all of it, from newly liberated countries like South Africa to the former colonialists themselves, notably the British are all DEAF. It is like they don't want see or hear any evil. Worse still, some of these countries such as Britain have actually colluded with Robert Gabriel Mugabe, Emmerson Mnangagwa and their BUTCHERING team in exterminating the Matebeles."

The [party said they are not therefore surprised that the dethronements of Robert Gabriel Mugabe by his little monsters have triggered a wave of reactions from President Jacob Zuma, the European Commission, Donald Trump's administration, and from Boris Johnson, British Foreign Secretary – a person that we have tried to engage as MLF without any response.

"All the reactions from these world leaders have one thing in common: they have all turned a blind eye to the plight of the people of Mthwakazi. These same world leaders must therefore not raise an eyebrow when the people of Mthwakazi finally take a stance and oppose the RULE BY CONQUEST as historically and contemporarily dished out by Britain, Robert Gabriel Mugabe and Mnangagwa's Zimbabwe for a combined period of one hundred and twenty four (124) years, with the determination never experienced before. These same leaders must therefore not rush to label the people of Mthwakazi with all criminal terminologies when that happens, because it will not bother us, after all we have been condemned to death by the same international community that includes the AU and SADC for far too long," said the party.

"For the people of Mthwakazi (Matebeleland), therefore, the composition of the Interim Government for Mthwakazi (Matabeleland) must take place immediately with the urgency it deserves, and should be inclusive of all Mthwakazi political formations and the royal family."
