MDC-T Youths Criticise Govt For Using State-Controlled Institutions To Attack Govt Critics
Youths in the opposition MDC-T led by Thokozani Khupe have criticised the ZANU PF government for using state-controlled institutions to attack government critics.
They speak amid reports that the government is using state security agents to abduct and torture government critics including opposition activists and human rights defenders.
Speaking on Saturday, Alfred Dzirutwe, the party’s youth assembly acting secretary-general implored the government to address economic and humanitarian and political crises in the country. He said:
The (MDC-T) youth wing is worried about the deteriorating socio-economic and political situation in Zimbabwe which has seen the country experiencing a sad episode of abuse by the government of the day.
The government is using State-controlled institutions to attack perceived enemies of the State, through abductions, arrests, and harassment of political activists, civil rights leaders, human rights defenders, and journalists.
