So the army commander, Lt General Tapfumanei describes persons exercising their democratic rights to demonstrate and to petition as SILLY ADULTS!
Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Ndangoti nditaurirei. Please don’t call me SILLY!

The other time everybody in government and other hangers on were commandeered to witness a nurses dormitory which had been repainted.
Sure here?
So this how the so- called second republic glorifies such petty issues.

@daddyhope What’s difference is between his observations, in parables , and God is in it!

The reference to section 202 of the constitution has nothing to do with removal from office as chair of Human Rights Commission.
ZANU tinyareiwo please ndapota hangu!

[Eric Taurai Matinenga @EricMatinenga]

Have just learned that Jessie Majome has been removed as Chair of Human Rights Commission. Assigned as Commissioner to Public Service Commission, 2/3 days after her damning report on the farcical CAB3 consultations. The removal/reassignment is unconstitutional.

[Eric Taurai Matinenga @EricMatinenga]

Section237(3) of the constitution states that:
‘The procedure for the removal of judges from office applies to the removal from office of a member of an independent Commission’ Am not aware of any Tribunal established to investigate Majome. Her sin: describing cab3 farce!

Closing churches so that people are ‘forced’ to attend a political meeting addressed by Garwe is just plain evil. True church must condemn this in the strongest terms. Christians, led by the cross, must reject this violent evil.

[Eric Taurai Matinenga @EricMatinenga]

Just attended Palm Sunday procession and service-very emotional moments. Emotion not my attendance but realization that others could not experience same at their churches because pastors were told to closed churches and attend a political meeting at Kotwa. C

@NewsHawksLive The Mrws Hawks circulated what I physically handed to parliament, this morning, duly, signed.
Never said a constitution cannot be amended.
Read my conclusion!

[Eric Taurai Matinenga @EricMatinenga]

@daddyhope I have read the statement signed by rtd Air Vice Marshal Muchena. Thank you Sir.
People should understand your very clear position: YES YOU CAN AMEND THE CONSTITUTION BUT SUCH MUST BE IN ACCORD WITH WHAT THE CONSTITUTION PROVIDES:THE PEOPLE ARE AT THE CENTRE. PERIOD!!

[Eric Taurai Matinenga @EricMatinenga]

All right thinking zimbos are extremely upset at this arrant mutilation of our 2013 constitution.
The police need to take action against the youths inciting violence. They have a cyber department capable of following these criminal acts.

[Eric Taurai Matinenga @EricMatinenga]

A video circulating on social media shows a group of ZPF youths being addressed to take physical action against Biti and Madhuku for their spirited stance against amendment 3. This is inciting violence. Police must be aware of this.expect them to respond. Opposition

[Eric Taurai Matinenga @EricMatinenga]

Not a select few. One wonders whe the the youths being addressed voted in 2023. If they did they voted for a 5 term president not a 7 term president. Where does the incumbent get the legitimacy to become a 7 term president. It’s not only Biti and Madhuku

@daddyhope Grant of bail to Sikhala and Thema is extremely good news.
It will be nice to know the bail conditions.

[Eric Taurai Matinenga @EricMatinenga]

SONA-Have never read such wishy wash.
No wonder there was a power outage before the bore could be completed

[Eric Taurai Matinenga @EricMatinenga]

When one hears the ad nuseam reference to Munangagwa and 2030 it’s as if there will be no Zimbabwe after 2030!
Hameno zvenyu imi vamwe. Pamwe ini ndinenge ndafa so I will have no post 2030 to worry about!!

@daddyhope If I were Iran, and thank God Ian not. I would immediately close the straight of Hormuz

@Informa34567899 Tino Machakaire is not a deputy minister. He is a full cabinet minister. So a dying relative in a public hospital has made him ‘dicover’ a decayed public health system. Pathetic. This so called 2nd republic should properly be called, the killing republic
