Some defended him saying it was figurative speech. Addressing ZANU PF supporters in Bulawayo’s Old Pumula suburb, Chiwenga preached peace. He said: > We also want the election process to be defined by peace. We don’t want any violence. We condemn it and give it the utmost contempt it deserves. Violence is not developmental. > Let us remind each other, including those in opposition that being in opposition today is not permanent. So we remain as brothers and sisters of one Zimbabwe. An election is certainly not a justification for any form of violence. In the past, Zimbabwe recorded an increase in cases of both intra-party and inter-party violence shortly before, during and after elections. The lastest rise in political violence, therefore, causes great concern amongst observers considering that the Southern Africa country is gearing for the 26 March by-elections and 2023 harmonised elections. *More: Pindula News* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
