WEDZA - Zanu (PF) has been misinforming villagers about the implications of MDC disengagement from the inclusive government, to win back lost support among the electorate.
War veterans and Zanu (PF) militia have told rural communities that, Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai and the MDC have resigned from the inclusive government and that Zanu (PF) was going it alone. The falsehoods are intended to create despondency among MDC supporters. “Zanu (PF) youths are moving around villages warning people that, since the MDC no longer work together with President Mugabe, the political situation has returned to that prevailing before the Global Political Agreement, GPA, was signed in September last year. We are told that Morgan Tsvangirai has ceased to be prime minister and MDC cabinet ministers no longer hold public offices,” said a villager last Friday. The man added that, traditional leaders had resumed threatening suspected MDC supporters with evictions. |
