Opposition parties take ED head-on over Gukurahundi

TWO Matabeleland-based opposition parties have launched a campaign to force President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s administration to provide restorative justice to victims of Gukurahundi before even considering their compensation demands.

The Moses Mzila Ndlovu-led Alliance for National Salvation (Ansa) and Mqondisi Moyo’s Mthwakazi Republic Party are leading the campaign, with the latter holding protests against Mnangagwa at the Zimbabwe International Trade Fair (ZITF) grounds late last year.

The parties want perpetrators of the atrocities arrested and taken to the International Criminal Court in The Hague for trial.
