This message from Trevor Ncube, the owner of HSTV, which employs the detained Zimbabwean journalist Blessed Mhlanga, should make any serious Zimbabwean stop and think about the importance of journalists like Blessed Mhlanga to our country, Zimbabwe.
Today is day ten of Blessed’s political detention, he is living in a horrible place yet he didn’t commit any crime.
We must stand with him and his family and RETWEET and RESHARE anything we see about his plight.
Blessed is not a criminal. He is a journalist, and journalists practise journalism, which is not a crime at all!
Every right thinking Zimbabwean knows that Blessed is in prison for interviewing a man who exposed the plan to steal a whole bank, his crime is practising journalism!
Let us all remember that because of Blessed’s interview, a whole bank was saved for now from being stolen!
We know he is in detention for that because Emmerson Mnangagwa’s spokesman George Charamba said so!
