MDC throws weight behind Chief Ndiweni

MDC Alliance has thrown its weight behind embattled Chief Nhlanhlayamangwe Ndiweni of Ntabazinduna, who was reportedly attacked by suspected Zanu PF youths, who tried to seize his vehicle on Wednesday in Bulawayo central business district.

The outspoken traditional leader sprinkled petrol on his Isuzu vehicle and threatened to burn it if anyone dared to seize it, forcing the rowdy youths to retreat.

Ndiweni last week declared that he did not recognise President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s administration and that he supported sanctions against government officials who were not respecting human rights and the rule of law.
