The Zimbabwe Lawyers for Human Rights (ZLHR) are worried about the ongoing “repression” and “mistreatment” of students in Zimbabwe. They are urging the government to ensure that students can exercise their fundamental right to academic freedom and other associated rights. In a statement reported by Pindula News, the lawyers are calling on the government and university authorities to allow students to freely elect their representatives without any interference or influence from the authorities. Read the statement:
<blockquote>
<h3>ZLHR CONDEMNS REPRESSION AND PERSECUTION OF STUDENTS</h3>
ZIMBABWE Lawyers for Human Rights (ZLHR) is concerned by the systematic repression and persecution of students in Zimbabwe and calls upon government to allow them to enjoy their fundamental right to academic freedom and associated rights.
In recent years and months, ZLHR has noted several incidents and cases, where students particularly those at universities and other tertiary institutions have been targeted and this has at times seen students being arrested, detained, assaulted, tortured and prosecuted. 
The targeting of students is meant to constrain students from organising and to neutralise their participation in politics and in the governance affairs of their communities and country.
In addition, authorities have attempted to weaken learners’ participation in the activities of students representative bodies and barring them from contesting as candidates in elections to choose leaders of student representative councils.
All this assault and violation of students rights and freedoms have been taking place despite the important role, which tertiary and university students play as social and political activists.
Student activists in their capacity as human rights defenders, and as members of academic communities, should be protected from any violations of their rights.
Section 75 of the Constitution emphasises the sanctity of the right to education while section 61 of the Constitution guarantees freedom of expression, which includes academic freedom.
According to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the right to freedom of expression and opinion and the right to freedom of peaceful assembly and association are considered key to student participation and the flourishing of activism in both social and political processes. 
These rights including academic freedom are also protected by the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, which is a binding document, and the Zimbabwean government, as a signatory to the Covenant, has a responsibility to uphold these rights.
In addition, as human rights defenders, students are also protected by the safeguards contained in the provisions of the United Nations Declaration on Human Rights Defenders.
As such, ZLHR calls upon government and university and tertiary authorities to;
• Cease the arrest, detention, harassment, victimisation, assault and the needless prosecution of students under unscrupulous and frivolous charges;
• Allow students to elect representatives of their choice without any form of interference from the authorities;
• Immediately cease the use of violence upon students and thus play a role in fostering a culture of non-violence in Zimbabwe;
• Respect, protect and promote the rights of students and safeguard them as human rights defenders;
• Acknowledge, appreciate and respect the rights of students to freely express themselves in all matters that affect them and allow them to exercise and enjoy their right to academic freedom and thus immediately cease impeding these fundamental rights.
</blockquote>
In Zimbabwe, student politics often reflect national politics because political parties provide funding to students to influence their decisions. There are two major student unions: the <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/ZICOSU/">Zimbabwe Congress of Students Union (ZICOSU)</a>, which is aligned with the ruling ZANU PF party, and the <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Zimbabwe_National_Students_Union/">Zimbabwe National Students Union (ZINASU)</a>, which is connected to the opposition. These unions play a significant role in shaping the political landscape on campuses and advocating for the interests of students.

Human Rights Lawyers Worried About "Repression" And "Mistreatment" Of Students In Zimbabwe

Former <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Zimbabwe_National_Students_Union">Zimbabwe National Students Union (ZINASU)</a> spokesperson, Tatenda ‘Zuj’ Mandondo has deserted the opposition <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Citizens%27_Coalition_for_Change">Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC)</a> led by <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Nelson_Chamisa">Nelson Chamisa</a> and joined the ruling ZANU PF.
Mndondo described the CCC as a sinking ship which lacks seriousness.
He was part of scores of “deserters” unveiled and welcomed into the ruling party fold by President Emmerson Mnangagwa over the weekend. Mandondo spoke to <a href="https://www.newzimbabwe.com/chamisas-ccc-a-sinking-ship-says-former-zinasu-leader-after-shock-move-to-zanu-pf/">NewZimbabwe</a>:
<blockquote>
We all have choices and decisions to make in life that are necessary for national development and unity of purpose and for them to scrutinise thoroughly their continued stay in a sinking ship.
My decision to join Zanu-PF was made of full body and mind inspired by the need to assist in the National framework and be part of a collaborative and unified political outfit that does not exhibit traits of chaos, confusion and despondency.
The opposition lacks seriousness in its approach and is the lone voice of a lone man or elite individuals, however, with ZANU PF you easily understand the command structure and still have your voice considered and your efforts acknowledged.
The issue with some pressure groups masquerading as political parties is regrettable as they lack proper substance to capacitate the masses they claim to lead, they do not provide opportunities, the democracy narrative being toyed around with has shifted dramatically and drastically from the days of the late former Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai and if they continue on their self-destructive path they will soon be a mere memory on the horizon.
</blockquote>
Mandondo was unveiled as a new member alongside late MDC founding President Morgan Tsvangirai’s brother Collins, who was coming from the Douglas Mwonzora-led MDC Alliance.

Former ZINASU Leader Defects From CCC To ZANU PF

ZANU PF Director for Information and Publicity, Tafadzwa Mugwadi has claimed his picture circulating on social media was not taken in his house but at a hostel at the University of Zimbabwe.
The picture set social media ablaze with his critics saying he was not rational as he was defending the Zanu-PF government which had made his life miserable.
Responding to a parody account under the username Nelson Chamisa, Mugwadi said:
<blockquote>
Dear embattled <a class="link-complex" data-user-name="nelsochamisa" href="https://twitter.com/nelsochamisa/" rel="noopener user" target="_blank">@nelsochamisa</a> I read your comment where you insinuate that a photo that was taken in our study room in Manfred Hostel reflects my bedroom. 
Let me say this comes as no surprise because having came to UZ via via poly thru mature entry, you hv no knowledge of college settings. Interesting revelations are that after getting academic amnesty at the law xul, u had poor students writing assignments for you, one of whom you appointed into the <a class="link-complex" data-user-name="mdczimbabwe" href="https://twitter.com/mdczimbabwe/" rel="noopener user" target="_blank">@mdczimbabwe</a> youth league as a reward. To the contrary, I read &amp; take responsibility as a student alone. 
you are an illegimate legal practitioner. Worse still was your obsession with bedrooms. You are supposed to be called a pastor in some respects bt you have a dangerous obsession with bedrooms? What a shame mfanha? I am not surprised when they say Just as a reminder, I don’t leave a fancy life bt an ordinary one becoz I work for a Party tht believes in servant leadership. Your obsession with fancy life styles is the reason why millions hv disappeared at <a class="link-complex" data-user-name="mdczimbabwe" href="https://twitter.com/mdczimbabwe/" rel="noopener user" target="_blank">@mdczimbabwe</a> coupled with tith wars at AFM to which u are a benefiary. 
To subject my family to ridicule becoz of a college hostel room makes a mockery to your late mother who endured wasted 9 months only to die in a pauperial situation because the son was building a mansion out of stolen MDC funds. I live within my means &amp; so are your supporters in the surbabs. They must feel embarrassed, ridiculed &amp; offended by your drama-queen skits. This is why a sane person can’t spot your difference from Prophet Madungwe. You are a laughing and sick man of politics. Bapu rakawandisa mamuri <a class="link-complex" data-user-name="nelsonchamisa" href="https://twitter.com/nelsonchamisa/" rel="noopener user" target="_blank">@nelsonchamisa</a> enda unotsitswa hana

A purported student at the University of Zimbabwe said the image was not taken in the institution’s hostel as claimed by Mugwadi and threatened to take legal action against him. Said one Souru Hwingwiri @faraihwingwiri:
<blockquote>
On behalf of UZ ., we distance ourself from that torn bed. Will engage our lawyers to punish and sue mugwadi if he dsnt withdraw ths with 30mins time frm ths time.
</blockquote>
Commenting on the picture below, MDC Alliance said the picture reflects the lifestyles of the majority of Zanu-PF supporters adding that a change in leadership will also help them live normal lives.

"Poor" Mugwadi Addresses Pictures Circulating On Social Media

A students’ representative organisation, Zimbabwe National Students Union (ZINASU) has claimed that its national vice president and Chinhoyi Univerity of Technology (CUT) chapter chair have been withdrawn from a lecture by police.
The union says they are being accused of standing in solidarity with MDC Alliance trio -Joana Mamombe, Cecilia Chimbiri and Netsai Marova who are remanded in custody after they allegedly lied that they were abducted and tortured b suspected state security agents. The union posted on Twitter saying:
<blockquote>Our Vice President Talent Madava <a class="link-complex" data-user-name="TMadava" href="https://twitter.com/TMadava/" rel="noopener user noreferrer" target="_blank">@TMadava</a> and CUT Chapter Chair Lionel Shayahama have been taken out of their lecture by CID Chinhoyi for standing in solidarity with the abducted Trio. The continued targeted harassment of student leaders is deplorable.</blockquote>
The trio was initially arrested on the 13th of May this year for participating in a flash hunger protest in Warren Park, Harare.
They claim that they were kidnapped from police custody and endured a 24-hour-long session of torture and sexual assault.
While the identity of their alleged abductors is not yet known, the state says the alleged abduction was staged to soil the image of the government while the international community, human rights defenders and the opposition implicate the police saying it was impossible for the trio to escape police custody.

ZINASU VP, CUT Chapter Chair Taken Out Of Lecture Over Solidarity With MDC Alliance Trio

Student unions have dismissed the <a href="http://www.pindula.co.zw/news/2017/05/20/ministry-instructs-universitiescolleges-allow-students-write-exams-despite-outstanding-fees/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">directive from the Ministry of Higher and Tertiary Education instructing state tertiary colleges and universities to allow students with outstanding fees to write their exams</a>. The unions allege that the directive is just cheap politicking ahead of next year’s harmonized elections. The unions have challenged the Ministry to amend Statutory Instrument 81 of 1999 if it is serious about allowing students to make payment plans.
Zivai Mhetu of Zinsasu said:
<blockquote>Statutory instrument 81 of 1999 which governs payment of fees by students in polytechnics and teachers’ colleges clearly states that fees should be paid before opening of schools or within seven days after opening
…As long as the statutory instrument is phrased in this manner, many tertiary institutions will disregard the call from the ministry to accept payment plans because there is no provision for payment plans in the legal framework that governs payment of fees.
Zinasu calls on the ministry to amend the statutory instrument in a way that makes payment plans legally permissible.</blockquote>

Zinasu spokesperson, Zivai Mhetu said:
<blockquote>A lot of students, who fail to find places for attachment, fake to be on attachment when they are not.</blockquote>
