    Zimbabwe's new president Emmerson #Mnangagwa was in charge of state security at the time of the notorious Matabeleland massacres, a crackdown by security forces that killed thousands. He denies any involvement. The families of those who died say justice has never been served.pic.twitter.com/LwWvUYVItV

        Zimbabweans need to be wary of these evil imperialist media who are bent on stocking tensions to disturb our peace.Their governments murder people around the world with impunity yet we don't hear them calling for justice on the perpetrators as they are westerners. RUBBISH!!
