Zanu PF activist Nguni seeks to nullify critical human rights report

Zanu PF activist Goodson Nguni on Wednesday accused the Zimbabwe Human Rights Commission (ZHRC) and its former chairperson Jesse Majome of publishing “falsehoods, half-truths and fabrications” over alleged intimidation during the constitution-making process.

Nguni, who fronts the little-known Federation of Non-Governmental Organisations, told a press conference that reports of people being coerced, assaulted or threatened during outreach meetings were “all lies”.

He alleged political bias on Majome’s part, questioning her links to opposition politics and whether she had severed ties with the MDC upon her appointment.
