Some 40 activists from the Vigil, Restoration of Human Rights in Zimbabwe, Zimbabwe We Can Movement, MDC and ZAPU met on Saturday and agreed meetings would be held after the Vigil on the first Saturday of each month. Opening the forum, Ephraim Tapa, President of ROHR and the We Can Movement, said the purpose was to explore the way forward. Everyone was invited to come up with ideas for future discussion and possible action.

Vigil supporters were encouraged at the apparently cool reception given to President Robert Mugabe at the AU summit. His self-serving rant against the AU for failing to support Gaddafi showed everyone how out of step he is.

FOR THE RECORD: 72 signed the register. – Zimbabwe Vigil
