Mnangagwa Under Pressure to Reprimand Chief Nyamaropa Over Abusive Language
By A Correspondent
A Harare man, Pritchard Tafadzwa Paradzayi, has sought legal intervention to compel investigations into Chief Nyamaropa (born Munyaradze Tivange) for allegedly violating the dignity of his subjects. Paradzayi has enlisted lawyers to demand action, and in a formal letter, he calls on the President of the National Council of Chiefs to address the chief’s conduct.
The controversy stems from a viral video in which Chief Nyamaropa is seen publicly berating a woman. In the footage, the chief orders the woman to remove her spectacles and insults her by calling her “stupid” in front of others at his court.
The incident has sparked widespread outrage, with many accusing the chief of using inappropriate and degrading language towards his subjects.
Paradzayi’s letter of demand outlines the severity of the situation, stressing the need for the chief to be held accountable for his actions. “We are demanding that Chief Nyamaropa be investigated for violating the basic rights of dignity that every Zimbabwean is entitled to, regardless of their social status,” Paradzayi stated.
Observers have also weighed in on the matter, urging President Emmerson Mnangagwa to take a stand and reprimand Chief Nyamaropa for his abusive behavior.
“This kind of conduct is unacceptable and reflects poorly on the leadership of our country,” said one political analyst. “President Mnangagwa must act swiftly to ensure that those in positions of power understand that such behavior will not be tolerated.”
The pressure is mounting on Mnangagwa and the National Council of Chiefs to address the situation, as calls for accountability continue to grow across the nation.
Whether Chief Nyamaropa will face consequences for his actions remains to be seen, but the incident has already sparked a wider conversation about the treatment of citizens by traditional leaders.
