“We condemn SADC leaders for their cowardly response in expressing confidence in Mbeki as a mediator in the Zimbabwe crisis when they know the extent to which he has failed.
“Mbeki has failed dismally in his role as a mediator and does not have a hope or even the slightest desire to be impartial. His callous, blinkered and uncaring approach is unhelpful to say the least. Mbeki must be replaced as mediator: said ACDP’s Cheryllyn Dudley.
The ACDP also lamented that Zimbabweans had been left alone by the region and at the mercy of the bloodthirsty Mugabe regime that left 20 000 civilians dead in Matabeleland in the 1980s atrocities.
“There can be no words powerful enough to express the absolute pain and rejection Zimbabweans are presently experiencing at the hands of callous leaders in Africa.
“Zimbabwe is an African problem which needs an African solution and it is despicable that Zimbabwe has been deserted over and over again, Dudley stressed.
The ACDP also hailed Zimbabweans, civic organisations and the Movement for Democratic Change for their godly response from Mugabe’s evil temptations.
“ACDP wishes to congratulate the MDC not only on their victory at the polls but for persevering in the face of tremendous opposition, violence and propaganda.
“We also recognize the brave and relentless efforts of Zimbabwean civil society who have poured themselves, at great risk, into the task of defending and fanning the dying embers of democracy in Zimbabwe,” said Dudley.
