‘Gukurahundi survivors denied food aid’

HUMAN rights activists and Silobela villagers in the Midlands province on Tuesday this week gathered to remember 11 people who disappeared in January 1985, during the Gukurahundi era.

The event, to honour victims of enforced disappearances in Silobela, was organised by Ibhetshu LikaZulu amid concerns that families of abduction victims were being neglected by authorities and sidelined in food aid initiatives.

Ibhetshu LikaZulu co-ordinator Mbuso Fuzwayo yesterday confirmed holding the event.
