Farai Dziva|The MDC Youth Assembly has roundly condemned the harassment and victimization of party councillor, Gilbert Mutubuki by state security agents in Chiredzi.

The state security agents threatened Mutubuki, a member of the MDC Youth Assembly over a land dispute in Chiredzi.

See the MDC Youth Assembly statement below:

The MDC Youth Assembly portfolio Secretary for Lands and Agriculture, Clr Gilbert Mutubuki last night received threats from three unidentified men who claimed to be from President’s Office.

The three men who are believed to be members of the Central Intelligence Organization stationed in Chiredzi were driving a white Nissan Hardbody.

Clr Mutubuki’s crime is leading an anti-corruption name and shame campaign in Chiredzi where he exposed multiple farm owners with farms that have been lying idle since the 2000 land grab program.

As MDC Youth Assembly, we are very disturbed by the state agents’ recent new low to use Gestapo like antics on responsible citizens fighting corruption.

It is our resolve and conviction as young progressive social democrats to fight corruption in its totality.

As such, our anti-corruption name and shame campaign respect no boundaries, even highest offices in the land!
