Geza Calls for Mass Protests

War veteran Blessed “Bombshell” Geza, wanted by authorities on sedition charges, called on Zimbabweans to stage nationwide protests on October 17 against President Emmerson Mnangagwa and alleged state capture. In a video from an undisclosed location, Geza accused Mnangagwa and business allies of corruption and misappropriating US$7 billion in state resources. He urged citizens to mobilise during the Zanu-PF annual conference in Mutare. Analysts say the protest could heighten political tensions.
