ZANU-PF National Chairman Simon Khaya Moyo said ZANU-PF will never
handover power to a non revolutionary party.
"We are a revolutionary party and any other party which thinks will rule
this country is day dreaming. We will not relinquish power to any other
party other than ZANU-PF", Khaya Moyo told a ZANU-PF meeting at Mary Mount
Teachers' College in Mutare at the weekend.
ZANU-PF is using soldiers to bar MDC rallies in Manicaland and the
servicemen are also directing chiefs and other traditional leaders to block
MDC rallies.
Last week villagers in Nyanga said Headmen and Chiefs were forced by
soldiers to gather at Nyamasara secondary school in Nyanga where they were
told to not to allow the legislator for the area Douglas Mwonzora to
organise any meeting any more.

Rights Group Warns of Resurgence in Political Violence
A Zimbabwean human rights watchdog organization warned Monday that political
violence is on the rise again in the country, especially in traditional
ZANU-PF strongholds such as Masvingo and Mashonaland Central.
Zimbabwe Human Rights NGO Forum Executive Director Abel Chikomo said
militants of the former ruling party have launched violent campaigns in the
provinces in preparation for possible national elections next year.
Reports said Zimbabwe War Veterans Chairman Jabulani Sibanda has launched a
campaign code-named '"Budiranai Pachena," Shona for "Let's tell each other
the truth." His critics say this is a cover for intimidation of members of
the former opposition Movement for Democratic Change, in government since
the 2008 elections.

Zanu activates terror
Zanu (PF) is reactivating its terror machinery spearheaded by war
veterans, traditional chiefs and state security agents, in a chilling
reminder to Zimbabweans that the forces of darkness that stalked the run-up
to the June 2008 presidential run-off are still intact and raring to roll
out once orders are given.
The revival of the Zanu (PF) violence structure is chronicled in a
21-page report published by the MDC-T last week which listed at least
50 incidents of violence and intimidation perpetrated by war veterans,
police officers, soldiers, Central Intelligence Organisation (CIO)
operatives, chiefs and youth militias during the past three months.
According to the report Zanu (PF) has reactivated militia training camps in
some parts of the country. Zanu (PF) youths are known for using such traning
camps as torture basis where perceived opponents of President Robert Mugabe
and his party are assaulted, raped, tortured or even murdered.
"Zanu PF has established youth militia training camps at five schools in
Maramba Pfungwe in Mashonaland East province, disrupting normal learning at
the schools ahead of the Constitution-making process," the report said.
