ROHR Zimbabwe condemns with utmost disdain the State Sponsored abduction and murder of yet another activist in Zimbabwe, Pastor Tapfumanei Masaya, who was abducted whilst campaigning for a CCC candidate in Mabvuku, Harare, by armed ZANU-PF and Zimbabwean State functionaries on Saturday, 11th November 2023.
What we now know to be his body was found at the intersection of Arcturus Road and Lobo Road in the Cleveland area of Harare on Sunday, 12th November 2023, a day after his abduction.
We
call upon ZANU-PF and the government of Zimbabwe to stop sponsoring abductions,
enforced disappearances, murder, and persecution of citizens who hold
alternative views to those of ZANU-PF.
Zimbabwe's constitution guarantees its citizens' and residents' rights and freedoms. These include rights to freedom of speech, demonstrations, association, etc. The State should uphold the rule of law and protect its citizens.
The
African (Banjul) Charter on Human and Peoples' Rights and the United Nations’
Universal Declaration of Human Rights also guarantee such rights and freedoms.
We call upon the President of ZANU-PF and Zimbabwe, Emmerson Dambudzo Mnangagwa, to change his murderous ways and to lead his Government to start to respect the rights of the citizens of Zimbabwe, uphold the rule of law and restore human rights in Zimbabwe.
We also call upon the SADC and AU to condemn ZANU-PF’s blatant waywardness and call the Zimbabwean government to order regarding its apparent condoning of the abductions and enforced disappearances by not bringing to book any of the culprits of these heinous crimes over the years despite them being known.
We
also call upon the UN, EU, US, UK and the international community at large to
add their voices in the condemnation of ZANU-PF and the Government of Zimbabwe
for being the architects of abductions, enforced disappearances, murders and
general persecution of citizens who hold opposing views to those of the ruling
party in Zimbabwe.

3rd November 2023
By Michelle Nokuthaba Mpofu.
Today, 3rd November 2023, marks the 38th year since the enforced disappearance of my maternal grandfather, Fuleza Gibson "Ndawana" Sibanda.
He disappeared at the hands of Zimbabwean state machinery at
the height of the Gukurahundi genocide in Matabeleland in Zimbabwe.
Fuleza Gibson “Ndawana” Sibanda was abducted by four men,
two of whom were in Police uniform and two in civilian attire on 3rd November
1985, at the Brethren in Christ Church in Mpopoma, Bulawayo, Zimbabwe.
He was never to be seen again.
This state-sponsored tragedy left a permanent scar on our
family and the community.
I'm always in fear of the Zimbabwean State Machinery, hurting
and forever in sorrow. There is no closure.
