'Nick Mangwana and your government go hang'

We would like to state categorically clear that we support Chief Khayisa's statement fully. The statement by the Permanent Secretary for Information, Publicity and Broadcasting Services Ndabaningi Nick Mangwana is in bad taste. If he thinks that Chief Khayisa's views on the looting of Matabeleland resources and arbitrary prepossession of land from White people in Matabeleland by people from Mashonaland are not shared by majority then he doesn't know what he is talking about.

Chief Khayisa is not acting individually, he acted on behalf of Mthwakazi and we are fully behind him. Nick Mangwana is a fool if he thinks removing and replacing productive White commercial farmers with ZANU-PF connected thieves from Mashonaland is development.

While the people from Zimbabwe are watching our chief closely whatever that means, we the people of Mthwakazi are also watching the government closely. Hands off our chiefs. We will not be killed in silence this time around. Mthwakazi is under ZANU-PF imposed sanctions already if getting our freedom back demands that the international community add sanctions on Zimbabwe so be it.

You Nick Mangwana and your government take responsibility for killing through the Gukurahundi genocide thousands of our people or just shut up and stop threatening our chief.

"Ngazwidirwe jecha".
