President of the South Africa based pro-Mnangagwa Zimbabwe Star Movement, Robert Gwarazimba, was stabbed in Johannesburg last week after addressing a meeting.

Jephia Chivange, ZSM secretary general, said the assailants were suspected to be Zimbabweans based in South Africa and the attack was politically motivated. “The attempt at Gwarazimba’s life comes as we are preparing for celebrations to mark the president’s birthday in Johannesburg,” he said.

The party was formed by Zimbabwean youths in SA to push for Emmerson Mnangagwa’s as president of Zimbabwe. Its activities have been disturbed by regular attacks and raids by suspected CIO operatives.

“I would like to advise ZSM detractors that we will not be intimidated by political cowards who fear competition and will push our agenda as youths in the Diaspora, until Zimbabwe has realised its full potential,” said Gwarazimba, from his Johannesburg base.

    A publicity stunt, was not addressing a news worthy meeting so got some of you Zanuidiots to stab you so you would make it on to the news.
    Real assailants would have effected worse and real stabbing. What are you Zanuidiots doing outside the country? You can not surely run away from your well managed economy to sing praises of Mugabe in a foreign land, what a cotradiction!

    Self-inflicted injury, no need for panicking.
