Witnesses of the incident disclosed that around 15:00 hrs on April 18, the man (name withheld) took the regalia from his house and set it on fire in the middle of the road while singing songs that denounced the ruling party.
“It was clear in his eyes that he was angry as he burnt the regalia. It was like a one man demonstration as he boldly called for the ouster of Zanu PF,” said one witness
