The MDC Vice president and Harare East Legislator has described the Bulawayo demo ban by the police as fascist. The police have issued a prohibition notice to the Chief Ndiweni’s solidarity march that was supposed to take place in the city of Amakhosi naMakhosikazi tomorrow 19 August 2019.
Speaking to Zim Morning Post Biti said:
It’s fascist. This regime keeps angering the people. There is no longer any avenue for dialogue. We have no other option but to seek the legal route.
Why is this regime afraid of talking to its people. We are being taken back to 1931. Demonstrations are constitutional rights but the Emmerson Mnangagwa regime is shutting the people out
Barely 3 days ago the Police also banned the 16 August Demo that was supposed to take place in Harare. The Harare demo ban came a few days after ZANU PF Political commissar Victor Matemadanda and defence forces Deputy Minister said the demo would not take place.

Mr Biti should understand that it his party’s irresponsible statements and conflation of issues that make the government ban these demos. I do not see a problem if the MDC A leadership say they will demonstrate against rising cost of living – that’s a genuine issue! The problem comes when they include issues of: legitimacy of current state president; forcing government to dialogue on their own (MDC A’s) conditions; and removing the current government through protests – now that’s a revolution which any government would prevent at any cost! The MDC A leadership is just reckless and they always get what they ask for! They talk of the legal route, fine, but did they accept the Constitutional Court’s judgement on the 2018 election results, NO! Which other legal route are they talking about?
failing to understand. why do some people call darkness light and light darkness? the suffering of the ordinary people should touch the hearts of us all. if your hungry child cries do you beat him or her and force the child to pretend as if all is well?
