I had the privilege and honor of leading the CAB 3 No Voters in Parliament today as an opposition Teller alongside Hon Caston Matewu . I wish to salute all 42 MPs (including myself) who had the courage to stand against CAB 3. History shall remember you for your principled position when it was not fashionable to do so!
A total of 258 Members of Parliament from both sides of the aisle were in the House today. Zanu PF had no two thirds as only 181 of its MPs were in the House and was short of 6 MPs to get to the magic number of 187 MPs. Sadly, some 35 CCC MPs voted with ZANU PF and thus enabled it to pass the Bill.
The struggle continues!
HISTORY HAS NO BLANK PAGES!
#NoToCAB3
Why CAB3 MUST go for a referendum!
In this episode, I explain how #CAB3 itself actually ADMITS that it MUST go for a referendum, @ProfJNMoyo’s FAKE definition of a "term limit provision", and why we ALL need to (in the words of Bob Marley) "Get up! Stand up! Stand up for your rights!" 🎶💪🏽🇿🇼 #NoToCAB3

The foolishness of ZANU PF. They recalled duly elected Citizens representatives. They imposed a pseudo-opposition of their own making. They manipulated the composition of Parliament and distorted the will of the people. They manufactured a fake two-thirds majority. Everything they did to the Parliament of Zimbabwe, against the mandate given by voters in 2023, fundamentally altered its character and legitimacy. That alone makes today's vote null and void. Yet they celebrate this rigging and political theft as a victory. A false victory. A rigged victory. A false Parliament. Zimbabweans outside that self-congratulatory circus reject this nonsense. The people do not support it. This is our fight, against the amendment of the will of the people. A fight whose expiry date will not be dictated by oppressors, rigged votes, or manufactured majorities. It will be decided by the citizens themselves—and by no one else!
Please join me in thanking these 42 courageous women and men stood with the people. You are on the right side of history. It is not over! The struggle continues. Justice will prevail.
🇿🇼 Claims of reform in Zimbabwe are hard to square with another push to rewrite the constitutional rules.
Stability comes from trusted institutions, not extended political timelines.
CHOOSE LIGHT, CHOOSE RIGHT…Any system, institution, or practice sustained by bribery, deceit, intimidation, and manipulation is inherently wicked, drawing its power from darkness itself. Be of light, not of darkness. Choose right. Choose righteousness and walk in light.
“The thief comes only to steal, kill, and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” John10:10
Blessed Sabbath.
AN UNCONSTITUTIONAL ACT… Great point made here by MP Mureri. This is the fundamental flaw with CAB3, Incumbents seeking to extend their own term of office. A gross illegality and brazen unconstitutionality. A classic case of conflict of interest, and unjust enrichment that unjustly benefits those promoting it. Even if they illegally pass it by hook or crook and without a referendum, it will be rejected by Zimbabweans. It simply cannot stand.
Let’s say he was appointed interim SG, who is his President now? Where was the party resolution for recalls? The hearings that resulted in the MPs being expelled from the party? Injustice to one, is injustice everywhere.
History has written your name somewhere. You confronted the tyranny face to face! They wanted to break you, but you remained strong! You have literally defeated them, because they thought the long detention would paralyze you, but you even came stronger
Welcome back Madzibaba
As every Mp is said to represent their constituents every one on the 210 should be given the opportunity to debate to express their constituents views the PR MPs are the ones who will most likely be given the opportunity to debate and who do they represent @ParliamentZim
A HERO’S WELCOME…It was a pleasure to welcome Citizens’ Hero, Godfrey Karembera, affectionately known as Madzibaba veShanduko and family, to our offices in Harare. A loyal, committed, and dedicated cadre, he remains steadfast and determined in the pursuit of a New Great Zimbabwe within our lifetime.
We extend our profound appreciation to the Citizens Welfare Bureau and to all the citizens who supported and contributed to his family’s welfare throughout this difficult period of persecution. Your solidarity and generosity have been truly inspiring.
The citizens are organizing.#Chapwati #NewGreatZimbabwe
IT WAS ALL ABOUT ED POWER GAMES…ED worked with Tshabangu to engineer illegal recalls that ultimately handed ZANU-PF a fraudulent two-thirds parliamentary majority, in clear violation of both the law and democratic principles.
Unfortunately, when the recalls began, many failed to recognize that this was part of a long-planned strategy orchestrated by ED. It was never about the claims that the CCC lacked a constitution or formal structures. In Zimbabwe you can not submit party candidates to ZEC without a party constitution. Parliament and Mudenda were in possession of CCC constitution but chose to ignore it on instructions from his Zpf Boss. Those no constitution and nil structures narratives were merely a smokescreen.
Some individuals, driven by their disagreements with Nelson Chamisa, celebrated the recalls, unaware that they were in fact celebrating the erosion of democracy and the weakening of our nation. The foundation for the current constitutional amendment agenda was laid in 2023 through those engineered and unlawful recalls.
However, all is not lost. The real struggle lies ahead. The task before us is to continue fighting for a Citizens' Government—one that reflects the true will and aspirations of the people of Zimbabwe. The future of our country depends on the determination of its citizens to defend voice, agency and fundamental rights .
No distractions. No diversions. The CCC Progressive Caucus remains focused on the people’s agenda in Parliament. CAB3 will fall, and when it does, those behind this assault on the Constitution will be held accountable.
Remembering u today, dear brother, four years on.Your voice, your courage,&your passion for shaping a better future continues to inspire many.Though you're gone, your legacy lives on in the lives u touched and the change u stood for. You are deeply missed&never forgotten Wamai
The future of our country must never be hinged on individuals. Our task is to build strong, independent, and enduring institutions capable of protecting citizens from the suffocating politics of the present. #ZanupfMustGo
