Violence

I am getting reports from the Zaka and Chiredzi constituencies now of threats and violence by youth militia perpetrated against MDC polling agents and villagers who it was perceived voted for the MDC.

In these constituencies the army and police have not been involved in any violence against the people, but have also not acted against Mugabe’s militia. These attacks are mostly taking place on the resettled farms and in the communal areas near these farms.

 

Farmers move to the towns

Several farmers spent the weekend in Chiredzi because they had received word that they were going to be JAMBANJAED.

The guard on my ranch was told that we would be killed if we were not off by the end of the month. I have taken this as a serious threat because they are the same group who attacked my ranch in Feb.2002 and killed 3 off my game scouts’ one of them being the brother of the threatened guard and tried to kill me. I have, in person and in writing, reported this to Chief Superintendent Dzaramba who is in charge of the Chiredzi district., hopefully he will act against them.

Dangerously unhappy

I am getting many SMS messages from the MDC youth now desperately looking for guns, saying that they are tired of been chased and beaten by Mugabe’s youth, obviously I do not have arms to give them and so tell them that Morgan wants all his people to stay calm and peaceful.

MY AND MANY OTHERS QUESTION IS, WHEN THE PEOPLE HAVE OBVIOUSLY WON AN ELECTION BUT THE LOOSERS DO NOT INTEND TO HAND OVER, HOW DO THE PEOPLE FORCE THE LOOSERS OUT PEACEFULLY?

If somebody has an answer to this question, please let me know so that I can pass it on and so give hope to our people and help to prevent a blood bath.
