A number of key Ministers whose portfolios have a role in the exercise will be in attendance. These include the Minister of Local Government and Public Works Hon Daniel Garwe, the Minister of Home Affairs and Cultural Heritage Hon Kazembe Kazembe, the Minister of Information, Publicity and Broadcasting Services Hon Dr Jenfan Muswere, the Minister of Labour and Social Welfare Hon July Moyo among others.

The programme will include presentations of reports and manuals by the president of the National Council of Chiefs, Chief Senator Mtshane Khumalo.

Chief Khumalo said that these hearings being rolled out will be the correct platform to make any submissions. He said:

I know that a lot of things are being said, which I don’t want to comment on pertaining to this programme. But what we are requesting as traditional leaders is that this is an opportunity for the people to come to the meetings and say whatever they wish to see being done.

It has been dragging on for some time and we hope at the end of the community hearings we will come to a solution. So, we are requesting that they (people) attend community hearings.

Gukurahundi refers to a series of massacres of Ndebele people carried out by the Zimbabwe National Army (ZNA) in the Matabeleland and Midlands provinces of Zimbabwe between 1983 and 1987.

It was a violent suppression of perceived “dissidents” and “insurgents” by the government of Robert Mugabe against the Ndebele ethnic minority in the early years of independent Zimbabwe.

Estimates suggest that between 10,000 and 20,000 civilians were killed during the Gukurahundi massacres.

The massacres were carried out by the North Korean-trained Fifth Brigade of the ZNA.

The government at the time labelled the victims as “dissidents” and justified the killings as necessary to restore order and unity in the country.

Gukurahundi is widely considered one of the worst episodes of mass violence and human rights abuses in Zimbabwe’s history.

Ask mnangagwa he was the minister of state security, he brutally murdered these ndebeles by being a crocodile with no fear or boundaries. He actually said he was fully trained to kill. All is behind him he should not run away from the truth

God is not man that He should act like one. He can forgive even the most wicked person, He will not hold any grudge against any but gives to all a chance to repent and guess what, that's what He died for. He died for wicked people.

No placating these victims in chief who are hellbent on banging the genocide drum till the Chicxulub asteroid equivalent of our lifetime destroys us all...There is no need for these hearings as it is just a useless retread of old ground...

well its the same as when politicians say we have liberated this country from white people, so white people are evil, we can not hate white people because they once colonised us. same here this Gukurahundi happened 30 or more years are ago, why still talk about it.

Past is not past in a system such as Zanu.
