The MDC notes with regret the barbaric crusade of intimidating people by a one Jabulani Sibanda, a Zanu PF stooge, whose actions since last year continue to disturb peace and security before the watershed election slated for this year.

The party demands that Sibanda's harmful actions should be stopped immediately and that he should be arrested.

It is unfortunate that the infamous self-styled war veteran chooses to be at variance with his leadership's position, particularly that of their leader Robert Mugabe, who has been calling for peace.

This week Sibanda was in Mhondoro where he used hate language while addressing villagers who had been forced to attend the meeting. The action by Jabulani is a clear disrespect and total disregard of his leadership's position and casts a serious shadow on the sincerity of President Mugabe's calls for peace.

To this end we challenge the Zanu PF leadership to openly distance its self from the untoward, primitive and archaic behaviour of Jabulani Sibanda. The continued barbaric actions by Jabulani, is not only treasonous but a serious threat to peace and security therefore he should be arrested.

There are strong fears that Sibanda could cause unnecessary bloodshed in the country if he is not reigned immediately for his continued hate language, harassment and intimidation of innocent villagers.

The MDC calls upon the people of Zimbabwe to remain steadfast in their resolve to complete real change and not be destructed by Jabulani Sibanda's misguided calls. Sibanda should be dismissed as a loose cannon out to confuse people ahead of the crucial election. He is a danger not only to himself but the nation at large.
