Comrade Bekezele Madumo Fuzwayo: a Man above ordinariness! I'm proud of you!

I am indeed responding to the article Cd Fuzwayo wrote on Bulawayo24.com January 19th regarding the cruelty done to a minor by some rouge desperate wife from Gwanda who paraded an innocent victim of sexual abused n'ked minor for sleeping with her silly hubby. It makes me proud to have men in our midst who are so human in their political activities. Cd Fuzwayo stands out as one of the few men of substance in our Zimbabwe's political landscape. It takes a man to stand up and speak for the rights of a girl-child in our devilish and child hating societies. It also takes the heart of a good man to speak out so loud the way Fuzwayo did. In my eyes you are great Comrade. I love you dear Bekezela. Your article was political correct, as a politician!
Evidently our girl-children are not safe from the hands of rogue men and women. This young minor is an absolute victim of paedophilic Gwanda husband who has the hide to put a young girl into such a cruel disposition because his trouser zip was failing him even at odd times of the day and place, if he felt it and the wife went grocery shopping he could casually call a girl to relieve his sexual pressure from his penis for him. Young girl-children are cheap service objects of sexual nature paedophiles use in Zimbabwe. As remunerations a girl-child will be given a fake one dollar, at best he would go without payment; he is THE MAN AFTER ALL. He has the right to sexual intercourse with anyone he felt at that time he so wanted it.
But our Bekezela Fuzwayo is not the type of a man. He begs to differ from the rough-rough of Zimbabwean men who think that their sex desires exudes the law regarding the protection of children in our societies. Fuzwayo is questioning the low values and decaying fabric of our societies regarding children and their rights. In the photo that girl could be about 14 years of age, a minor by definition. As Fuzwayo puts it, that girl must have been threatened: a threat of force was used to the girl to come to the bedroom, was frightened by threats of force and she complied. This is the maximum punishment she had to go through, degrading her persona; the element that defines her as a human being was ripped off, curiously by a woman. This girl endures six times-abuse from both the husband and the wife.
In any sexual intercourse, who soils the linen, men or women? Biology will tell you that it's the men who soil the blankets. In what way would this little girl have soiled the woman's blankets? She endured a sex act she was not part of but was done to her in absolute cruelty- she get punished for enduring pain in the course of sexual encounter with this rogue man. Is her slipping into the blankets the soiling of the bed linen? Why did she not confront her hubby and shame him in the public in the same way she shamed the minor? Is she afraid to lose her "good marriage" to her "good husband"? This woman should be ashamed and be shamed by all civilised citizens of our nation. This devilish woman from Gwanda crossed the radical line!
Cd Bekezela Fuzwayo is leading in telling us to be vigilant in protecting those vulnerable in our societies: the-girl-children. He eloquently talks about protecting the community values and upholding exactly that that makes us human: if there was a problem there are many avenues to solve such issue however painful, he said.
There are situations where the Zim government gets it right. When we hear that this particular woman was incarcerated we should applaud this. Abuse on young women and girl-children is rampant in Zimbabwe; it is getting worse by the day. It is worse enough to know that there are many "decent men" out there who will never test justice for their pa*dophile links to both girls and boys. This homosexuality that is forbidden by law, as a matter of fact homosexuality is there in our Zimbabwean societies it's just secretly practiced on young boys who will forever keep the secret of anal sexual intercourse from the public.
This Gwanda woman may believe that this girl is the one at fault and not her husband. Hence she vents her absolute anger in the public to her than her husband. She knows too that the public will support her action it did not matter how much she violated the rights of the child. Abuse on children has always been the fault of the child and not the man in question. A girl-child is the last piece of dirt in our societies! The UNCRC articulates the rights of children less than 18 years in its human rights treaties. It spells out the rights of children as human being whose rights must be protected by UN members who ratified the treaties regarding children. Zimbabwe as a member of the UN is bound by the international law to protect children. This Gwanda woman must be told that those jungle-like bush-laws she meted on our girl-child are not tolerated in Zimbabwe by any civilized government present and future regimes of Zimbabwe. She should remain behind bars until she learns to abide by the law that respects human beings including children and not her short-lived temper tantrum culminating from a husband who cannot zip up a simple trouser zip.
Would it not have been easier if she taught her husband good manners of a hubby at home than to attack the weakest in our society – the girl-child? It is typical in our society to reduce the weaker sections to nothingness to effect power of possession. Women enjoy this kind of power possession when one member is humiliated in the presence of all to see. This is misplaced power show-casing. This woman should confront her hubby, her equal, and deal with him thoroughly she was going to get respect from all corners of the country. I will not be surprised if this woman will welcome her hubby back home and continue to condemn the little girl- a victim of it all.
Our societies' mindset should change from shaming victims of sex abused girl-children by abusing sex-victims in a public bashing. If you are a mother you should think and empathize with such situations. It can be my own child tomorrow in this situation.
We Zimbabwean people we lack empathy seriously. We dwell too much on pornographic material found at every corner of CDs shops. We tend to consume pornographic violence without condemning it as such. We see abuse, instead of assisting the victim, we start shooting video clips with our mobile phones to send to You-tubes sometimes without any due remunerations but just for the sake of publicity and fun, how sad. This love of pornographic violence is so country-wide, how we are going to curb this ruthless scourge of absolute insensitivity towards the other: no idea! To a certain degree, women should be to blame for their role in reducing other women victims of sexual nature. I am telling this story all over again! When I wrote a book and passionately told it that there was serious sexual abuse in my family, I was attacked by the very women in my family who are victims of sexual abuse themselves. These women are custodians of family secrets, never to be publicly known and spoken about. I went further and told it that the very SOCIAL FATHER IN THE FAMILY IS A SERIAL PAEDOPHILE, the attack was then direct, you do not belong to the family anymore: whatever that means! It was good to know that I could effect that change, pull down walls of deceit forever. The emperor is naked, his armpits are smelly, and he needs a good bath!
I should never be part of a family institution that conceals sex abuse on children as old as eight, nine and 11 years old. If I was abused myself at that age, it then compels me to root out such evils first and by foremost talking about it and doing something tangibly starting from my home going out. We have the nation's duty never to leave any stone unturned by making sure such men; paedophiles see justice one day: but that one day will come! Come hell or sunshine!
My politics in Zimbabwe is clear from the onset, to protect the rights of women and children, assist in formulating future perspectives, and empower them as such so that we are not seen in a cycle of poverty that will further pull us into the deep end. These are my objectives I consider them uttermost to live for – God willing!
