“JOMIC I understand is supposed to monitor the political situation, what we want is a change in approach so that Zanu (PF) will be exposed,” said a villager. “We have suffered violence from Zanu (PF) supporters here and yet the police are not making any arrests.”
Another villager who only identified herself as Mbuya Midzi said that she had no peace.
“The people are monitoring us and we do not have peace. We have fear of Rudd Ndoro, he is causing mayhem and nothing is being done to him. We are also sad that people who beat us in 2008 are still boasting about what they did, they stole our livestock and nothing has been done to them,” said Midzi.
The MDC claim that 200 of its supporters were murdered in 2008 by known Zanu (PF) supporters, but the police have not made any arrests.
“They say on the radio that there is no violence, yet we are reporting the attacks to the police and we have to walk about 26 km to do so, only for the police to ignore us. We are going to try and involve JOMIC to come here and end the violence,” said another villager who refused to be named.
