MDC Alliance Youth, Mazwi Ndlovu, was killed in cold murder by a member of the ZRP neighborhood watch for challenging the partisan food distribution by a ZANU PF Councilor.

The late Ndlovu was a son to former MDC Bulilima East Ward two Councilor, Msongelwa Ndlovu. MDC A Youth Spokesman Stephen Sarkozy Chuma, said Ndlovu was killed over the weekend by a ZRP neighborhood watch, whose name is known to Zimbabwe Observer after challenging a local ZANU PF leader over his partisan distribution of donor funded food.

Meanwhile Chuma announced that the MDC Youth wing will be deploying peace officers at food distribution points to ensure equal access to food aid. “Matabeleland South is one of the drought prone areas and this year is not an exception hence people depend much on food relief usually donated by Non-Governmental Organizations,” said Chuma in a statement.

Chuma said it was unfortunate that ZANU PF was abusing its influence in the province to deny opposition supporters access to food aid. He added that a future MDC A government will give equal access to food for all without any consideration of a political affiliation.
