Students know that constitutional changes shape everyday lives. We oppose #CAB3 because democracy requires accountability, public participation and institutions independent from political control.

Sometime back, we travelled to Lupane State University to campaign for our ZINASU presidential candidate. Little did we know that the State had already deployed its CIO apparatus to monitor our activities.

After a successful campaign, out of nowhere, university security guards approached us and demanded that we gather in a room. Naturally, we asked why. Their response was chilling, a truck was on its way to collect us and take us to a police station for further investigations.

I immediately called the then ZINASU National Secretary-General @DevineNyakudya and the then Legal Secretary @FanuelGona28265 to raise the alarm. They advised us to cooperate fully, reminding us that we had done nothing wrong.

A few hours later, detectives arrived. They proceeded to interrogate us and demanded our national identity cards. Eventually, they ordered us onto a bus. Just as things appeared to be escalating, they received a phone call and suddenly decided to release us.

What we did not know at the time was that state agents had been deployed to follow us throughout Lupane.

The man with the bald head in the picture, dressed entirely in black, was one of those monitoring us. He followed us from place to place and would occasionally position himself close enough to listen in on our conversations and hear what we were discussing.

To confirm our suspicions, we devised a simple test. Together with other comrades, @DenfordSithole , @KeeganMathe , @Prof2212 , and @SheCommander1 we deliberately boarded a bus that was heading to Victoria Falls. Moments later, we got off and made our way to the correct bus that would take us back to Bulawayo. To our surprise but perhaps not our shock the same individual immediately got off the Victoria Falls bus and boarded the very bus we had switched to.

That moment confirmed what we had already begun to suspect, we were being watched.

Yet despite all of this, we remain unshaken.

I will always carry the voices of students who refuse to be ignored. That is my mandate, regardless of how the State may choose to mischaracterise it.

I will never apologise for standing firmly with poor and struggling students, with unjustly arrested students, and with those who continue to be marginalised by a system deliberately designed to favour those with the means to exercise privilege.

The struggle for justice, dignity, and academic freedom is bigger than any attempt to intimidate us into silence.

I will continue to uphold those ideals for as long as I am Chakona Nyasha.

Yours in the struggle for Academic Freedom @Zinasuzim

Students refuse to be spectators while our future is rewritten. CAB3 threatens accountability, participation and democratic oversight. We stand for a Constitution that serves citizens, not political convenience.

Our leaders rot in remand while the executive tightens its grip. CAB3 silences us, kills justice and ends public participation. We reject this elite power grab. #FreeAllPoliticalPrisoners #StudentsSayNoToCab3 #VadzidziVaramba

[Godknows Rwodzi @godknowsrwodzi]

A generation denied participation today inherits oppression tomorrow. Students reject constitutional amendments that threaten accountability, justice and democratic governance. The future belongs to the people.**

[Runyararo Peter Mutizira @MutiziraPeter]

When power becomes concentrated, justice becomes vulnerable. Students reject constitutional changes that weaken democratic checks and balances. Zimbabwe's future must be shaped by citizens, not a political elite.

[Godknows Rwodzi @godknowsrwodzi]

From lecture rooms to Parliament, our voices matter. CAB3 affects our rights, our education and our future. Students stand united in defence of constitutional democracy.**

Judge Mangosi denies bail for our comrades. CAB3 gives the President control over courts. Then no student is safe from arbitrary arrests. Rise up!

When institutions stop listening to the people, the responsibility of speaking falls upon students, workers and all who refuse silence. Every generation faces its defining battle. This is ours.We are organizing!!! #AbafundiBayalile #StudentsSayNoToCab3

Parliament doesn't represent us. The elite want to own the judiciary. We say: no to expensive education, no to jailed activists, no to CAB3.

[Ashley (The Disgruntled Student) @Samanyanga04]

As CAB3 seeks to remove the right of us as students to directly vote for our preferred Chancellor, we must ask, what happened to the principle of “one man, one vote” that the liberation struggle was fought for? Democracy cannot survive when our choices handed over to politicians
