IS IT A CRIME TO VISIT MBARE MUSIKA?

By Dorrothy Moyo| The Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corporation reports that MDC president Nelson Chamisa faces arrest for visiting Mbare musika without police clearance and later talking to  crowds who became joyous upon seeing him.

The report says this is required under the Public Order and Security Act (POSA).

Chamisa today made a surprise visit to Mbare to experience The Troubles that people are facing and was suddenly greeted by crowds who became exuberant upon seeing him.

Said Chamisa, “Christmas misery at Mbare Musika-I’m here at the Mbare bus terminus to experience how the majority of Zimbabweans are coping under the current hardships.Also assessed the fuel queues.I’m really broken by the sufferings people are going through!I wish I could say merry Christmas.”

MDC Treasurer General, Charlton Hwende, says ZBC (in a news bulletin) reported that Chamisa could be arrested as punishment for failing to abide by POSA. Writing on microblogging site Twitter this afternoon, Hwende said, “ZBC is now reporting that Police is threatening to arrest President @nelsonchamisa for violating POSA by visiting Mbare Musika without notifying the police. This is ludicrous and ridiculous #ZimbabweYatiChamisaCheteChete.”
