By Dorrothy Moyo| MDC leader, Nelson Chamisa yesterday vowed to compensate Gukurahundi victims.

Speaking at White City stadium, Chamisa said President Emmerson Mnangagwa must apologise.

“Until you admit that you were part of the system that killed people we will not accept you,” said Chamisa.

He then added saying his administration will treat Gukurahundi victims the same way white farmers have been…

“If you compensate white farmers, why should you not do the same to Gukurahundi victims,” said Chamisa.

This follows his previous statements the previous month when he said, “it’s pointless to try to wash away Gukurahundi. The most logical thing is to acknowledge that the massacres left deep scars in survivors’ hearts and there is need to heal those psychological wounds through properly-structured healing processes,” he said.

“My government also promises to come up with a language policy that ensures that non-Ndebele-speaking people are not deployed in such areas as Matabeleland as that stifles development.”
