Farai Dziva| Emmerson Mnangagwa is not concerned about the Mashurugwi menace because he created the thugs, MDC has said.

See full statement below :

The MDC Youth Assembly notes with concern at the increase in gross human rights violations as evidenced by loss of lives and belongings at the hands of the marauding ZANU PF sponsored machete gangs known as Mashurugwi.

What is glaringly visible is that ZANU PF bigwigs, state security agents and machete gangs are working in cahoots to instil fear through terror on restive citizenry who have become impatient with Emmerson Mnangagwa’s corrupt regime.

That there is an ongoing clandestine sexual transaction between Mashurugwi and some members of ZRP clearly makes it difficult for members of the public to trust the men and women in uniform.

As such, the Assembly will from next week set up Community Resistance Committees across all districts whose prime mandate is to protect citizens from attacks by Mashurugwi terror gangs.

It is very clear that Mnangagwa is not part of the solution but part of the problem hence he is not moved at all by this Mashurugwi menace.

Mnangagwa sleeps comfortably at his residence knowing fully well that he is guarded by CIO, police and military, but our people are having sleepless nights because of these vigilante groups.

As a pro- people Assembly, it is our duty to make sure that our parents, brothers and sisters are safe from attacks by these ZANU PF thugs.

The state, government and those controlling levers of state power have abdicated from their duty to protect citizens, hence we are taking the responsibility to save and protect our people from this ZANU PF sponsored genocide.

Meanwhile, we urge all citizens to be on high alert and avoid moving as individuals.
