The United States government has warned President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s regime in Zimbabwe against failing to ensure that there will be no violence in the upcoming by-elections.
Zimbabwe is set to hold by-elections on the 26th of March to fill the vacant seats in the National Assembly and local government.
This follows the mass recall of MDC Alliance MPs and councillors by smaller opposition MDC-T leader Douglas Mwonzora accusing them of supporting the main opposition leader Nelson Chamisa.
The US Embassy in Harare on Friday warned political parties against perpetrating violence in the upcoming plebiscite.
“Violence and intimidation create an environment of fear and division in the run-up to by-elections and 2023 harmonized elections. Zimbabwean voters have the right to participate in political processes and public assembly free from intimidation & violence. #VotesWithoutViolence,” the Embassy said in a statement on Twitter.
“We are concerned by reports of violence as Zimbabwean political candidates meet with their supporters. #ZimElectoralReform means political candidates have the right to campaign and hold public assemblies free from intimidation and violence. #VotesWithoutViolence
“ZimElectoralReform means the Government of Zimbabwe sets the stage for legitimate, credible, and peaceful elections. We call on all parties to refrain from intimidation, repression, and violence of political opponents, media, and civil society. #VotesWithoutViolence
“We share @MISA’s concern for journalists in Zim’s highly-polarized climate. Government, parties, and citizens alike must respect journalists, media freedom, and free speech in the lead up to 2022 by-elections and 2023 harmonized elections. #VotesWithoutViolence.”
Harare, Zimbabwe’s capital, saw post-election violence on August, 1, 2018.
At least six civilians were shot dead by the military during a post election demonstration. Thousands were injured and the perpetrators have not been punished. Nehanda Radio

What the United States has to do with Zimbabwe? Zimbabwe it’s for Zimbabweans and Zimbabweans are those who decide what to with their country.
Engelbert Rugeje which Zimbabweans are you talking about
Engelbert Rugeje , Lezonya one day is one day and it will look so Sad! 🤞🏽
Engelbert Rugeje I’m sorry poor soldier, you think you will live forever,,let me tell you something today, We will take back our country from you soldiers,police and ZanuPf as soon as possible,
I’m hundred percent a Zimbabwean and I have a right to tell you if you are wrong,
Joe Biden is warning you and your President Emmerson Mnangagwa,,its time to change the way you have been leading us stop violence against the citizens,,dont beat,shoot and kill us.
Imagine taking teachers to court because they were complaining about their salaries, what do you call it?,,

Engelbert Rugeje you’re a moving grave

Elvis Kandoga
Elvis Kandoga I just hate these old soldiers, and old politicians
Engelbert Rugeje kuto Dada kunge makasika vanhu nxaaaaaaaah.
Va Rugeje; God is the owner of Zimbabwe and not Zimbabweans. You came from your mother’s womb with nothing and just like Mugabe you shall depart the planet with nothing going six feet down. The reason why Uncle Sam built that embassy in Westgate shows that; there is gonna be a bright future when Zanu is gone.
Engelbert Rugeje you soldiers you are a problem to Zimbabwe you continue supporting ZANU PF nomatter things are in bad orders. You Millitary Generals you must learn to understand that you work to protect the people of Zimbabwe not the ruling party .When you go to war you go to protect Zimbabweans not ZANU PF. Liberation struggle was to liberate Zimbabweans not ZANU PF. Stand with the people of Zimbabwe not learders. Leaders come and go but Zimbabwe and it’s citizens will remain there and ZNA will remain there plz plz plz plz Military Generals must stand with the people of Zimbabwe not the ruling party all our soilders are living in poverty they can’t even able to buy a car or to own a house or to put adecent meal for his family just why they turn to robberies
Maqhawe Sbusiso Sbu that’s not a soldier, some lunatic who thinks it’s funny hiding behind some fake account.
Engelbert Rugeje Zimbabweans are no longer deciding what to do with their country except for the few greedy and corrupt murderers which happens to the be your cronies.
Engelbert Rugeje uri mhata iwe mboko chaiyo .you benefited everything by looting bro .You are nothing to us Zimbabweans but a devil 😈 lucifer
