Why was mbuya nehanda killed?

Mbuya Nehanda, a prominent figure in the First Chimurenga (the Zimbabwean War of Independence) against British colonial rule, was executed by the colonial government in 1901 for her role in leading resistance against colonial oppression. She was considered a spiritual leader and a symbol of the fight for freedom.
