MDC Alliance condemns beating, torture of Zimbos deported from SA

Must Try

Trending

The opposition MDC Alliance led by Nelson Chamisa has condemned Zimbabwean soldiers for allegedly beating and torturing local people being deported by the South African government.

In a statement, the MDC Alliance South Africa chapter said: “We would like to condemn in the strongest terms the harassment and abuse of deported Zimbabweans by Zimbabwean soldiers at the Beitbridge border post.

“These are desperate Zimbabweans attempting to cross into South Africa because there are no jobs nor cheap healthcare in Zimbabwe.

“Scenes of huddled poor Zimbabweans surrounded by horse-riding, gun-totting soldiers are disconcerting. This in the midst of the fourth wave is uncalled for and illogical.

“Equally puzzling are beatings being meted out on the hapless deportees by the soldiers and police officers. The behaviour of the soldiers is callous and undeserved, and should therefore be stopped promptly.”

Social media is awash with photographs of Zimbabweans detained by soldiers at the Beitbridge border post amid a crackdown launched by the South African government to flush out illegal immigrants.

“We expect the clueless Harare regime to adopt a people-centered approach to deal with the migration of Zimbabweans to South Africa.

“The Zanu PF government is the author of the economic and political problems ordinary Zimbabweans are running away from. How ironic is it that army officers from the underperforming Zimbabwean government are brutalising Zimbabweans for looking for greener pastures?

“The humanitarian crisis being created at the Beitbridge Border post requires both the Zimbabwean and South African governments to work together to find long-lasting solutions to this annual migration.”

The MDC Alliance appealed to the South African government to lead the Southern African Development Community in ensuring there are political, media, and electoral reforms in Zimbabwe, which can create a conducive environment for the holding of free and fair elections next year.

“As long as Zimbabwe has political problems, the economy will continue to shrink, resulting in the obtaining scenario at the busy border post. We reiterate that only a change of government in Zimbabwe will stymie the exodus of the unemployed and the infirm from our country.” Voice of America

Arnold Dennis Dziva Nox l get yo point. Anyway lm on my way to Beitbridge now.
But my argument is on Sadc protocols on refufees. But if we say those pple ar not economic refugees fair and fine.
But if they ar economic and political refugees then they deserve protection and SA must not send them back where their lives ar under economic threat.
How many Malawians and Mozambiqueans did we hubour and vamwe vacho vatova vemuno for life.
Ana Phiri, Mwale, Banda etc. We protected them and Zim haina kumboita zvatiri kuona joni izvi.
SA yakamboita zviya zvekupisa vanhu and no one said anything. Apa ndipo panofanira kubatana Zanu neMDC to denounce this babaric act by our giant neighbour

Sobhuku Ndebele it true kwete kungomhanyira kuti vanhu vadzoswa kubva kuSouth Africa voshungurudzwa nemasoja iwe se munhu anombomhanyira kunze kana zvadai mhanyaka uti vapei magwaro vatambura musavasunga vanhu vanobva vaona kuti yah apa paita mutungamiriri We mangwana kwete kuti ngavauye vazoregister kuvhota vachidyei vakamirira kuvhota

So MDC A and Hopewell are happy that Zim people must not live and work in SA. Kumhata kwamaivenyu mese. In all other African countries like Zambia Malawi Ghana Botswana Nigeria etc where opposition parties won elections they did not make their people suffer to vote for them or neither did they call those living abroad to comeback home and vote for them. They just presented well their case to the people on the ground and they gained their vote. Stop abusing people so that they can help you get into power. People have defied your sanctions and looked for other alternatives now you’re going after them. Shame on you. You will never never and I say never rule Zimbabwe. All this emigration started in the year 2000 when MDC was birthed and decided to bring suffering on people so that they can stop voting Zanupf. Now they’re going around the world disturbing people’s lives just because they want power. Imagine having such kind of a government you will never remove them because they will always make you suffer unless you let them rule you. I remember Tsvangirai in 2000 addressing workers in Harare saying “Mati munenzara? Hamusati matanga kutambura kusvika maziva peku vhotera”. 22 years on they’re still using the same strategy. But it will never work. #Handeitione
