The statements of the Prosecutor General Johannes Tomana where he advocates for poor children from the age of 12 to be legally permitted to consent sexually and get married, grossly violate the rights of children enshrined in the Constitution of Zimbabwe and International Instruments Zimbabwe is party to.
The Prosecutor General has proven beyond reasonable doubt that he is not suitable to continue as Prosecutor General.
His duty is to protect the weak and vulnerable and such statements trample upon what his office should protect.
The Prosecutor General should with immediate effect resign or be forced to resign as he no longer retain the confidence and trust of the general Zimbabwean populace.
We, the undersigned, call upon the Prosecutor General Johannes Tomana to resign as Prosecutor General of the Republic of Zimbabwe following his gross statements on children’s rights published in the Herald and other newspapers on the 19th of July 2015.
