Popular Apostle Talent Chiwenga, has revealed that he is being targeted by ZANU-PF leaders because he has revealed the true history of the struggle where many young women fighters were abused and had children in the bases, a practise that was not allowed by spirit mediums and commanders.
The apostle said:
- Many villagers were killed after false reports of collaborating with the Rhodesian Regime. Due to petty jelousies, villagers would falsely report to the guerillas who had no capacity to investigate and this resulted in executions by the “comrades”.
- Young women were called to the tents of senior commanders and were not given a choice.
- Fay Chung was responsible for keeping children born at war at Osibisa andmany of them did not know their real fathers.
- After Independence these children and their fathers could not re-unite as they were using the state security machinery to prevent them from gaining access.
- Robert Tapfumaneyi started talking about the children at Osibisa after Apostle Chiwenga brought up the topic.
