#FreeJacob #DailyMaverick #31stJuly.

A worrying increase in dissent, human rights abuses and arbitrary arrests of journalists – this is how the opposition leadership and its supporters, including government critics, are characterising the Zimbabwean socio-political space in the run-up to planned nationwide protests against corruption under the hashtag #31stJuly.

Transform Zimbabwe leader Jacob Ngarivhume, supported by the main opposition MDC Alliance and many other civic organisations, including pressure groups, called for a nationwide demonstration on 31 July 2020 against corruption and demanded that the ruling ZANU-PF government should go.

But in the run-up to the protests on 31 July and thereafter, Zimbabwe police put the brakes on the protest when they arrested several high-profile figures, including international award-winning journalist Hopewell Chin’ono, politician and convener of the planned protests Jacob Ngarivhume, writer and 2020 Booker prize nominee Tsitsi Dangarembga and MDC Alliance spokesperson Fadzayi Mahere.
