Own Correspondent|MDC Alliance’s fearless Harare West constituency legislator Hon. Joana Mamombe got arrested Saturday morning in Nyanga as she rounded up a Parliamentary workshop. She has since been charged with treason.

Charges against Mamombe stem from a press conference she held at the Marlborough Civic Center in Harare on January 14 after President Emmerson Mnangagwa increased fuel prices by 300% on January 12.

At that Marborough press conference, the brave MDC Alliance MP called for a peaceful protest march in Harare West which was to be held on January 17 (Ward 16-41) from Pamusasa in Westlea to Mabelreign shops.

She also made seven demands to President Emmerson Mnangagwa, and these were:

Reversal of the 300% fuel increase by President Mnangagwa
A robust economic policy based on wide consultation with labour, business and citizens
Abandonment of the 1:1 rate between bond note and USD
Zimbabwe to join the Rand Monetary Union.
Upward review of civil servant salaries
Central government to provide adequate financial resources to the City of Harare to enable them ensure basic social services
President Mnangagwa to initiate dialogue with MDC leader Nelson Chamisa
