Opposition MDC Alliance deputy spokesperson Clifford Hlatywayo has bemoaned the ever present threat to peace of Zimbabweans locally and abroad as a result of Zanu PF’s onslaught against dissent.

Hlatywayo who was quoted in a local publication castigated Zanu PF for being a stumbling to the attainment of peace in the country.

“The peace of Zimbabweans locally and abroad is at stake. Our peace is under threat from the state. The illegitimate regime has become our stumbling block in attaining peace in Zimbabwe. As citizens we need to pursue our own peace because it is the backbone of individual and national development

“We join all nations to commemorate this year’s International Peace Day. Both political and socio-economic peace is under threat. Education and health care systems have been destroyed. Political space has been shuttered. The human rights and fundamental freedoms is now a taboo in Zimbabwe. The generation ahead of us is plundering and destroying our resources and robbing Zimbabwe’s future,” said Hlatywayo.
