68% of a Zimbabwean's time is spent looking for solutions to problems caused by ZANU PF. Every office of the ZANU PF government produces more problems than it solves.

1 MONTH: Today marks 1 month since the Kariba ferry operated by Mr Mnangagwa's office killed ~100 people. Mnangagwa did not visit the scene, nor visit to console the families. Instead he went to South Africa twice. No one was held accountable even when it is known that Chief Secretary Martin Rushwaya & RIDA were warned about this in 2021. There are no alternative arrangements for transport right now. There is no road construction planned. Victims were given $100 and coffins. Mnangagwa's acolytes are back dishing cars from proceeds of plunder & theft. The people remain on their own!
CDF notes the inauguration of President Hakainde Hichilema for a second term in office.
For CDF, the inauguration raises fundamental questions on whether electoral contestation in Zambia is continuing to meet the constitutional and democratic standards that citizens of Zambia, the Southern African region and the African continent should expect.
Our position as CDF is fundamentally constitutional: democratic regression is unacceptable regardless of where it occurs on the African continent, who is responsible for it or who stands to benefit from it.

As we mourn our people who perished in Kariba due to government negligence, Let's talk about what the Constitution says of the obligations of the government to its people. https://t.co/ZDJaPGje7b
$500 million was looted from government coffers in the past 6 months. Ministry of Finance is now trying to spin this. This is the money that is being looted by Zvigananda. They cannot account for it. To put things into context, Min of Health used $1.5 billion. Which means 177 zviganandas used same amount for unknown business as 16 million people used for health
Yes, we built 2 blocks at Masibinta in Matabeleland North. We took that school from 0% pass rate to 42% pass rate in 2 years by just providing decent learning spaces and books. We wanted to do the same at Gwelutshena but Minister Sthembiso Nyoni stopped us.
I had an interview with Miriam from The Standard and shared my thoughts on the role of the Diaspora in the struggle for constitutionalism. Unfortunately it's not available online
