Farai Dziva|The country’ s main opposition party MDC A has openly challenged Emmerson Mnangagwa’ s government to desist from persecuting innocent citizens.
MDC A spokesperson Jacob Mafume yesterday condemned the harassment of MP Joanna Mamombe’ s family by state security agents:
The MDC is concerned with the continued harrassmment of Members of Parliament by the military State.
Last night more than six armed individuals broke Hon Mamombe’s parent’s house in a supposed search of Hon Joanna Mamombe despite it not being her place of residence.
The individuals were armed to the teeth but not armed with a search warrant, and did not identify themselves.
The MDC is worried about the use of Smith regime tactics. In no country do you have harrassmment of elected officials the way it has been happening in Zimbabwe since August 2018.
That the speaker of Parliament is also silent is an indictment on his party.
Allowing the Executive arm of the state to decimate dissent in the legislature is barbaric, undemocratic and unacceptable.
Hon Mamombe is not a criminal, terrorizing her mother and invasion of her privacy is a violation of her Constitutional rights.
The State must protect it’s citizens and should not terrorise them and instill fear into everyone who disagrees with Dambudzo Mnangagwa.
Behold the New. Change that Delivers
Jacob Mafume
MDC National Spokesperson
