Vice President Constantino Chiwenga has warned the opposition MDC that its protests will never effect regime change in Zimbabwe.
Chiwenga was speaking at a ZANU PF’s People’s Conference underway at Goromonzi High School, Mashonaland East, he said:
This is not Mongolia where you can challenge authority and cause violence as much as you want. That will not happen in Zimbabwe.
Chiwenga’s remarks were in reference to the 1932 Mongolian rebellion which ended in a bloodbath.
His remarks come when opposition MDC has indicated plans to start a blitz of demonstrations that will be held nationwide, simultaneously.
The state has previously been blocking MDC protests arguing that there was evidence suggesting that the gatherings would degenerate into chaos.
