The opposition Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) claims that its members were on Wednesday attacked in Seke and Wedza communal lands by suspected Zanu PF activists where Nelson Chamisa was supposed to address supporters.

In a series of tweets, CCC spokesperson Fadzayi Mahere said, “Zanu PF thugs unleashed violence against our members in Wedza today. They were armed with axes, spears, stones and logs. They mounted illegal road blocks & barricades to block our Change Champion in Chief, @nelsonchamisa from meeting local leaders.
