MDC has moved to ban the wearing of any party regalia during its much-publicised Harare march against massive suffering under the Zanu PF led government Friday. At a media briefing Wednesday, party spokesperson Daniel Molokele said the decision was to counter an alleged plot by Zanu PF to print the main opposition's t-shirts for distribution to elements hired to cause violence while posing as MDC supporters.

"The MDC is just a facility, facilitating the will of the people, Zimbabweans. "So if you are a Zimbabwean, you want to express yourself. Feel free to wear whatever you
In a show of force to discourage anti-government protests, Zimbabwe police with water cannons patrolled the capital’s streets and warned residents “you will rot in jail” if they participate in the demonstrations planned for Friday. Six anti-government activists have been abducted and tortured this week ahead of the protests, as tensions rise over Zimbabwe’s deteriorating economic conditions, according to human rights groups.

Kaingidza is being accused of deliberately spreading HIV to various women. Linda said she was not moved by the story. “Whatever happened in the past is past, we cannot judge someone by what he did some years ago because I was not there in the past and why would someone bring 2014 issues into 2019? “It’s obvious that it is someone with sour grapes and has some agenda with my husband. “If they think that it will affect me or break me up with my husband they should forget and smile because nothing will separate me and my hubby. “It’s nonsensical, they should go to hell and asvot
President Emmerson Mnangagwa is reported to have granted permission for the opposition MDC to hold its protests in the Harare CBD tomorrow. The opposition which applied to protest against the deteriorating conditions in the country is yet to get an answer from the ZRP on whether their demonstration has been approved or not. However, Mnangagwa is said to have granted permission although with the caveat that if there is any violence, the security forces will respond with force.

Zimbabwe’s main opposition Wednesday said it will roll out protests starting this week to try to force President Emmerson Mnangagwa to set up a transitional authority, even as the government warned against such action and a rights organization reported an escalation in abuses. Spokesman for the Movement for Democratic Change party Daniel Molokele said on Wednesday that the party has mobilized its supporters to protest on the streets in the capital, Harare, on Friday. The protests will spread to other cities next week, he said. “Every Zimbabwean will be marching to end this suffering until we achieve a legitimate people’s government that will begin to address the serious challenges facing the country,” Molokele told a press conference. “Until that is achiev
Zimbos, don't participate in the MDC Demo Here is why: 1. It's definitely going to be violent_* - MDC leaders know very well that a peaceful protest won't have an impact, they have already planned to unleash anarchy. 2. Police & soldiers will definitely intervene_* - The protest will be violent & police & soldiers will intervene. It won't end well, stay safe. 3. What's the point of the demo?_* - ED Mnangagwa invited Chamisa to join dialogue many many times but he is refusing. Does he want people to die first before joining the dialogue? Why should he use us unnecessarily yet he can join the dialogue? 4. After the demo, ED will still be President & Zanu Pf in power - Let's not be in deni
