Defiant Madzore tells off Chinamasa, Gumbo

Freed MDC-T Youth Assembly leader, Solomon Madzore, has dismissed threats by Minister of Justice and Legal Affairs, Patrick Chinamasa, and Zanu (PF) spokesperson, Rugare Gumbo, that there would be a coup if his party wone the next general elections.

A High Court judge yesterday finally released Madzore and another MDC-T activist, Lovemore Taruvinga, on $500 bail.

Madzore and Magaya are part of a group of 31 MDC-T activists charged over the slaying of Insp Petros Mutedza who was stoned to death in Glen View last year in April.

Madzore had spent more than a year in prison custody.

“I have heard Chinamasa and Gumbo saying that it is impossible for Tsvangirai to take over if he wins (but) we don’t give a damn about that,” said a defiant Madzore while addressing hundreds of MDC-T supporters at Harvest House, the party headquarters.

Madzore also made the dramatic revelation that prison officials asked him to pass their plea to the MDC-T leadership to remember them in the event that the party wins power.

He also thanked the party and MDC-T supporters for the morale support they gave him and other detained members.

MDC-T National Organising Secretary, Nelson Chamisa, also addressed the gathering and welcomed Madzore back from prison.

“We are welcoming our hero and brother, Solomon, (even though) we still have other comrades that are still behind bars. What we must know is that the entrance to get into a new Zimbabwe is Chikurubi. The entrance into State House is Chikurubi,” Chamisa said.

He added: “Before you get freedom you must actually lose it. Before you get something new, you must experience the old. Before we achieve, we must seem not to achieve.”
