Jane Mlambo| War veterans have come out in support of the Zanu PF Youths league and Lewis Matutu saying all those implicated in the corruption allegations must vacate their offices until they clear their names.

The war veterans said they stand behind Matutu and the Youth League in their fight against corruption adding that they are ready to resist any attempts to threaten those fighting the scourge.

“The stance taken by the youths that everyone alleged to be associated with any corrupt activities within the ruling party should clear his or her name, first and do the most honorable thing by vacating office until his or her name has been cleared.

“We all know that his excellency the President of Zimbabwe Cde ED Mnangagwa has made several warnings to those who engage in corruption and it seems all is falling on deaf ears, we cannot leave his excellency fighting this battle alone.

“We are in support of all efforts being made to fight the scourge. As war veterans, we do not condone the threats made against the youths for exposing those alleged to be doing or have cases of corruption not cleared.

“We stand by the youths as they are not alone in this fight, threats to those fighting corruption will be resisted by freedom fighters,” said war veterans in a video posted on ZBC.
