Zimbabwe remembers 27 June 2008.

June 27th, 2012

Today is 27 June 2012, a very significant and memorable day for the people of Zimbabwe as it brings sad memories of how Zanu PF, dripping with blood, stole the people’s will and elections on 27 June 2008.

Exactly four years ago today, the people of Zimbabwe witnessed a very sad event as Zanu PF and its president, Robert Mugabe claimed to have won an election that was contested by one presidential candidate.

This was despite the fact that Zanu PF had been trounced heavily by the MDC and President Tsvangirai in the harmonized elections held earlier in March.

Today, we sadly remember the hundreds of MDC members and their families who were murdered, tortured and maimed at the hands of Zanu PF and State security. Families were left broken, homeless and destitute as Zanu PF hoodlums went on a rampage looting and raping innocent people.

The country was brought on its knees by a ruthless Zanu PF regime that wanted to cling to power at all costs despite losing its popularity through dictatorship, corruption and disregard of the people’s freedom.
