This follows a series of events where violence was targeted at its members allegedly from governing party, Zanu PF members, in rural areas ahead of general elections to be held between July and August.
"We know that our opponents are very scared. You saw that a few days ago one of their stalwarts was actually motivating their members in Zanu Pf that we must steal the alternative's identity documents. "They want to win on the margin of terror and we are going to make sure that one we protect our members, we protect our members of the community through the envelope of peace and making sure that Zimbabwe walks towards a democratic breakthrough," said Siziba.
Violence has been predicted to escalate as the country marches towards elections despite calls by political players including President Emmerson Mnangagwa for peaceful polls.
