He said:<\/p>\n<p>Matabeleland, we have your answer as CCC. I know there is the issue of Gukurahundi, I know the only leader umfana omncane (the young boy) is the only one who\u2019s capable to deal with truth and reconciliation in the country. First of all, let\u2019s accept that there was violation of our citizens\u2019 rights.<\/p>\n<p>Chamisa also pledged to address the perennial water challenge by completing the Zambezi Water project that was mooted in 1912 and has to date remained a dream.<\/p>\n<p>Moyo accused Chamisa of grandstanding in order to win votes. He said:<\/p>\n<p>This is one of his campaign strategies and I advise our people not to be carried away. No Shona person will solve our problems. They won\u2019t because they want to take advantage of us all the time.<\/p>\n<p>If he is genuine, he should be saying this (talking about Gukurahundi) everywhere he goes because even his kinsmen should know about his plans. But he knows that addressing Gukurahundi may not be acceptable to Mashonaland people which is why he talks about it only when he is in Matabeleland.<\/p>\n<p>He added that Chamisa and \u201ceveryone should know and admit that Gukurahundi was not politically motivated. Instead, it was tribally motivated.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Moyo added that \u201cZANU PF only implemented Gukurahundi on behalf of the entire Shona community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Moyo\u2019s remarks are dangerous as they can incite violence on innocent people.<\/p>\n<p>More: NewZimbabwe.com<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/zimbabwe\">Zimbabwe<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Zimbabwe.
