Terrence Mawawa, Masvingo | The video clip produced during the Itai Dzamara Commemoration Event has become so popular with jittery state security agents now threatening residents over the footage.

The video footage was filmed in Manchester UK on the 11th of March.The event was facilitated by Zimbabwe Citizens’ Initiative-an organisation formed by exiled Zimbabweans.

The footage features popular UK based artist Sylvanos Mudzvova who imitates Dzamara’ s voice in the clip. Fearing the footage would spread on social media platforms, three suspected state security agents pounced on four Great Zimbabwe University on Saturday night and forced them to delete the footage.
“We were coming from the Great Zimbabwe University main campus when three men approached us and confiscated our cellphones. They forced us to delete the video clip produced during the Itai Dzamara Commemoration event. They warned us to distance ourselves from political events,” said a Sociology student. Dzamara ,a journalist and human rights activist was abducted by suspected state security agents in March 2015 .He has not been seen since that time. Zimbabwe Citizens’ Initiative Information and Publicity Officer, UK,Farai Nhakaniso called on the people of Zimbabwe to unite against tyranny and dictatorship.

“Let us remain vigilant ,we will not tolerate the torture and abduction of innocent civilians,”he said.
