Activist Makomborero Haruzivishe on Thursday led Zimbabwe National Students Union (ZINASU) students to storm an Impala Car Rental shop in Harare, locked workers in and left with the keys while demanding the release of their president Takudzwa Ngadziore.
Ngadziore was arrested for demonstrating at the Impala Car Rental offices demanding answers concerning the company’s alleged role in the use of its vehicles in state sponsored abductions.
Haruzivishe and ZINASU students stormed an Impala shop in Harare located at Speke Street and First Street.
Among the front leaders, together with Haruzivishe were Chantelle Matumba a first year student at Women’s University of Zimbabwe studying for a Diploma in Social Work.
“I am a female student who will be a mother in the future and we are here representing future generations, I would not want my children to be subjected to such treatment,” said Matumba in a brief interview.
The students vowed to close down colleges and universities until Ngadziore is released from prison.
“We are in charge; we have the keys. You’re abducting people. Tawanda Muchehiwa is someone’s brother. We are here to make a statement that, since you made him arrested, we have also locked in. We are in charge.
“We are giving you an ultimatum:
“1) you must go and withdraw the charges against Takudzwa Ngadziore.
“2) you must obey and release information for abducting people in Zimbabwe. This is going to be continuous.
“You locked Takudzwa Ngadziore in Prison, we have locked your shop also.
“We are also going to close Colleges and Universities until Takudzwa Ngadziore is released,” they said.
