Anyaoku for Zimbabwe’s post-polls violence panel

President Emmerson Mnangagwa of Zimbabwe has appointed former Commonwealth Secretary-General, Chief Emeka Anyaoku, into the South African President Kgalema Motlanthe-led seven-member independent commission of enquiry to unravel the violence that trailed the recent national elections in that country.

Riots had broken out in Harare after some supporters of Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) besieged the National Results Command Centre before torching buildings and vehicles.

The killings shocked Zimbabwe after the peaceful July 30, 2018 polls, the first after the fall of long-time leader, Robert Mugabe in November last year.
