The
Organ of National Reconciliation and Healing is a mockery of justice
Foundation of Reason and Justice
December 11, 2009
The organ of
National Reconciliation and healing in located in President Mugabe's
office. Three ministers are leading it: Sekai Holland from MDC Tsvangirai,
Gibson Sibanda from MDC representing Arthur Mutambara and John Nkomo
representing ZANU PF.
Innocent Zimbabweans
have endured massive violence from ZANU PF leaders, Police, Army,
CID, CIO, and Militias. Thousands of women were raped by ZANU PF
militias. Rape was being used as a political weapon to punish or
victimize women who do not support ZANU. Tens of thousands were
tortured by ZANU PF for refusing to support Mugabe's dictatorship.
Thousands of
opposition supporters have been murdered. Men and women were abducted
during the night; dead bodies of some were found in old mine shafts,
lakes, farms and water tanks. These people were being abducted and
murdered by ZANU PF's CIO, Soldiers, Police and Militias.
ZANU PF wants
to cover up tracks for all these crimes and inhumanities. If the
National Reconciliation is faithfully, it must punish the perpetrators
of these crimes against humanity. Crime must be punished for; Victims
of crime must be compensated by those responsible - ZANU PF officials
who were responsible for unleashing terror on political opponents.
The Mugabe's
controlled organ of National Healing is a hoax and cover up for
hideous crimes against Zimbabweans. People need justice, compensation,
protection and security. Justice means punishment of perpetrators
and compensation of victims.
In Zimbabwe
forgiveness is for the benefit of the perpetrator, Biblical forgiveness
is for the seek of the victim. Forgiveness is a spiritual therapy
to the victim. Forgiveness does not mean the perpetrator should
not be punished or that compensation should not be paid to the victims
of rape, arson, assault, or any other injury. Quasi Christian principles
are being formulated by self-seeking, and wicked politicians and
the so- called man of the cloth, to protect criminals.
The reconciliation
and healing is the work of the Church. Political leaders are meant
to bring justice for the oppressed and to punish criminals such
as ZANU PF officials; partisans who were perpetrating crimes against
innocent Zimbabweans.
MDC politicians
must not be used by Mugabe and ZANU PF in attempt to cover up for
crimes that are being committed. Zimbabwe will never heal until
justice is done to the victims.
Many Zimbabweans
are angry with this Reconciliation and Healing headed by self-seeking
politicians. Leaders who accept anything, so long they attain power
and wealthy.
Violence in
Zimbabwe was being contrived in Mugabe's ZANU PF offices,
now these villains (leaders) are talking about forgiveness and reconciliation.
Perpetrators are not being told to apologise and compensate. Victims
have no platform to speak out. Those who try to speak out are still
beaten or murdered. The MDC and ZANU PF Reconciliation and Healing
is a mockery of justice and true healing. Victims of crime should
forgive but that does not prevent them from demanding compensation
and restraining perpetrators.
Zimbabwe is
not yet free. Election is a human right. Currently, there is no
democratic government in Zimbabwe. Unity government is not the will
of the people of Zimbabwe. Unity government is a suppression of
the will of the people. The authority to rule comes from the people.
Free and fair elections, are imperatively needed in Zimbabwe.
