MDC President Nelson Chamisa has condemned the jailing of the popular Chief Felix Ndiweni who was put into remand prison within 48 hours of the MDC demonstration which he encouraged people to participate in.

Posting on his portal, Chamisa said:

Trumped up charges and arrest of Chief Ndiweni of Ntabazinduna is a direct attack on Zimbabwean culture and traditional leadership. This attack opens yet another fresh national wound that will be difficult to heal. We demand the immediate release of the chief and his subjects.

The matter Ndiweni was arrested for is said to have taken place sometime in 2017.
