‘Gukurahundi is not a mere Matabeleland phenomenon but is a national issue which is real’-Reverend Ray Motsi

Reverend Ray Motsi has said Gukurahundi is not a mere Matabeleland phenomenon but is a national issue which is real and must be treated with great attention.

Motsi made the remarks during a a Gukurahundi celebrations in Bulawayo organised by Ibhetshu Likazulu.

Mthwakazi Republic Party  led by Mqondisi Moyo attended in solidarity with iBhetshu Lika Zulu in today’s Gukurahundi genocide commemoration.

A genocide which took place from 1983 to 87, though its now continuing up to this day albeit in another form of economic and education genocide, also eliminating Matabeleland  in strategic lands and positions.

“MRP will always stand by Mthwakazi people and will continue to look for peaceful means to find justice for Mthwakazi survivors of Gukurahundi genocide,” MRP said.

“We appreciate, as party the commemoration which took place today that was led by iBhetshu lika Zulu. We appreciate the presence of different political parties and civic groups who came and attended as they were all saying united we stand divided we fall. It is refreshing and some how encouraging to know that there are other Shona people who actually believe Gukurahundi Genocide happened and was wrongly targeted to the Ndebele people.”

Motsi said he was in United Kingdom before 1980 and he came to the country in 1988, he stayed only for two weeks in Harare before he was deployed by his church to Pastor in Bulawayo. He said he was happy that the country of Zimbabwe has gained independence but as he came to Matabeleland he found a different story.

He said at first he didn’t believe that there was such a thing called Gukurahundi, he never thought it was even possible that a black government can unleash such an inhumane satanic act.
But as he went around he discovered that for sure its real. That’s where he came about forming an organisation called grace to heal more than 20 years ago.

Reverend Mosti is now Dr Mosti after he finished his PHD with Pretoria University, he studied and researched extensively about Gukurahundi and can now reveal and confirm that for sure it happened. Dr Mosti said Matabeleland genocide is not a regional issue but a National issue. Of which he believes that we are not just victims but survivors. There fore its high time the people of Matabeleland stand up and be counted.

Dr Mosti reminded people about the story of Samson in the Bible, he said the Philistines shaved his hair which was his source of power, but they forget that the hair will grow again indeed it grew again and he got his power back and fulfilled his purpose in life.

He even said that there is a prophecy that Matabeleland will rise again and indeed it will rise again. He said the system created by ZANU PF is Satanic and was forced on everyone, though it has benefited the Shona people to this day.

“As a party we appreciate the efforts being made by different people and organisations and we thank Reverend Mosti also for his unwavering support to Mthwakazi concerning the Gukurahundi genocide issue,” MRP said.

MRP President Mqondisi Moyo thanked ibhetshu likazulu and also acknowledged the late Qhubekani Dube as the founding chairman of Ibhetshu likazulu.

Moyo said he strongly believe that the best solution to Mthwakazi is Restoration. Moyo said King Lobengula’s was not a sellout, we know who the sellouts are. President Moyo took a swipe at Kudzai Chipanga the ZANU PF youth leader, Chipanga is a fool how can he call Bhalagwe genocide a tourist attraction?

‘We should go to Matopo and stop that birthday bash. Its satanic and barbaric to go to peach tents for a birthday bash on top of graves of Mugabe’s victims,” he said.
