Pindula|The newly elected MDC Youth assembly leader Tererai Obey Sithole is reported to have been briefly taken in by police officers for questioning. It is however not clear as to why he was taken.

It is suspected however that he was taken in connection with some announcements he made last week about the MDC youths assembly resolution to take a confrontational approach against president Emmerson Mnangagwa. Sithole is quoted as having said:

We are taking the decision to confront this regime, knowing fully well that the answer to the national question lies in this generation, which has a future to safeguard.

As the MDC youth assembly, we are going to set the pace in making sure we save this nation from despondency and deprivation. We are neither apologetic nor afraid to take this regime head-on to ensure that we bring back the dignity and decorum of our people.
