However, some
rumours circulating in connection with the elections have also been
received are disturbing if they are true. Firstly, a report which
is yet to be confirmed alleges that Zanu PF Political Commissar,
Elliot Manyika, has shot one of his election agents, accusing him
of failing to ensure Manyika's victory in the elections. We
do not know if the agent has died. Also heard through the grapevine
is the case of one Rev. Katsiru who was allegedly arrested for possessing
four stuffed ballot boxes in the town of Marondera. It is not clear
what he was intending to do with them.
It would be
a cause of serious concern to all peace-loving Zimbabweans if these
reports are true. We only hope that these and other issues can are
investigated expeditiously.
