By A Correspondent- President Emmerson Mnangagwa has warned the organisers of illegal  demonstrations being planned by the opposition and the country’s detractors that security services will be on high alert to respond to any mischief.

Speaking at the 342nd  ZANU Politburo session,  Mnangagwa said the planned insurrection of July 31 2020 is connected to the violence and destabilisation that opposition elements have fomented since 2018, including the August 2018 violence and the violent disturbances of January 2019 which led to the loss of lives.

He said Zanu PF as the people’s party, will never allow people to be put in harm’s way.

“It must never be in doubt that the objective of these rogue Zimbabweans acting as in cahoots with foreign appendages, supporters, and financiers to stage an insurrection to overthrow our democratically elected Government.

“We will equally defend our Independence and sovereignty to the letter and not betray the fallen heroes and heroines who paid the supreme sacrifice for the freedoms we enjoy today.

“I want to warn the organisers of this ill-fated demonstrations that our security services will be vigilant and on high alert  to appropriately respond to their shenanigans.”
