Farai Dziva|MDC Alliance deputy spokesperson, Clifford Hlatywayo has challenged Emmerson Mnangagwa’s administration to stop harassing innocent and hapless citizens.

Hlatywayo told ZimEye.com on Monday the regime was desperate to silence democratic forces through arrests, abductions, torture and intimidation of citizens.

He said Mnangagwa must focus on addressing factors affecting millions of suffering Zimbabweans.

“The issues that are affecting Zimbabweans in general are very clear . Mnangagwa must address the issues that are affecting ordinary Zimbabweans.

Unfortunately Mnangagwa has chosen to gag democratic voices through violence, intimidation and torture.

Instead of protecting the three girls, Joana, Cecilia and Netsai, Mnangagwa’s administration is determined to cow them into submission.

The girls must be released as a matter of urgency,” said Hlatywayo.

He added: ” Mnangagwa is in panic mode and he is at war with citizens. He is using every weapon at his disposal to silence dissenting voices.”
