The petitions, the arrests, the hard questions and the answers

ZINASU General Council meeting was on saturday disrupted by police in Mutare who claimed the meetiong was illegal.The police went on to arrest and detain student leaders at Mutare police station for the whole weekend including myself.

The police descended on Wise Owl Motel creating pandemonium,meyhem and jeopardy by unwantonly beating and dispesing the student leaders in the process injuring ,arresting and detaining some.

The crack down is an effort by an illegitimate government that has failed to serve the people to try and prolong its stay on power by quelling any forms of protests by pro-democartic movements.

ZINASU had petitions which were supposed to be presented to the President on the 14th of September 2006 confisticated in an effort to frustrate the voice of the students.The petitions were more than six million,including more than hundred ZINASU newsletters,and a banner worthy more than two hundred thousand dollars(revalued of course)

The student leaders who were arrested were subjected to inhuman and degrading conditions and treatment,they were scolded,harrased,denied food,access to their Lawyers and clean water,they were from time to time put in solitary confinement,and continously summoned in the heart of the night for interrogation under extremely torturous conditions.

Will ZINASU therfore go ahead with petitions,will they be cowed into submission,has the regime successifully jearpodised their planned protests including their intention to join and support the ZCTU demonstrations on wednesday.

ZINASU will go ahead with the petitions,by reproducing more signed copies,the regime may have confisticated the signatures but surely did not kill the people that signed and therefore they will still sign and the regime will be exposed that six million people cant afford the satanic fees,a number that tripples that which Mugabe claims his legitimacy on.

ZINASU will never be cowed by intimidation,we are fully geared to take this regime head on,we know we are on the right side of history and that it is only a matter of time before the peopole truimph.

The regime has shamelessly tried without success to hinder the students from exposing them.The students will march at Monomotapa house fully prepared to be arrested and beaten as a way of exposing the callous nature of the Dictator.

ZCTU demonstrations are on wednesday and ZINASU is fully in support and will in fact join and support them and address in solidarity with the workers ,the bulk of which are our parents who bear the brunt of paying these illegal,diabolical ,satanic and moronic fees.

STRAGHT FROM THE CELL,DETERMINED TO GO BACK.
