By James Gwati-President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s government is denying thousands of Gukurahundi victims access to death certificates of their murdered relatives, a report by a respected International Human rights lobby grouping has revealed.

According to a just-published report by Amnesty International another publication called, We are like “stray animals”, they cited details how Zimbabwe’s discriminatory and arbitrary nationality laws have left generations of migrant workers and their families marginalized in the only country they have ever called home. Meanwhile, thousands of survivors of the horrific Gukurahundi massacres, one of the bloodiest episodes of Robert Mugabe’s rule, are denied citizenship because they cannot provide the death certificates of relatives, which are required to prove Zimbabwean nationality.
