[Constitution Defenders Forum @cdfzim]

Machipisa is warming up.
CDF members took a peaceful walkabout at Machipisa Shops, engaging residents, sharing our message and listening to the concerns of the community. The conversations are growing, the awareness is spreading and the spirit of constitutional defence is taking root.

This is how movements grow, person to person, shop to shop, street to street. Zimbabweans are opening up, asking questions and standing firm for the protection of the 2013 Constitution.

The people are ready. The ground is responding. The defence of our Constitution continues. Join Constitution Defenders Forum (CDF) Today 📌. @BitiTendai @daddyhope @ali_naka @VMusinachirevo

Murderous criminals. All South Africans. They targeted and murdered a young foreign national who was trying to earn an honest living.

@nickmangwana How do you even begin to compare US and Zimbabwe? The comparison is flawed and assumes the economy is just as strong and people earn at the same level

🟡PRELIMINARY BUDGET VIEW: There’s so much to debate, analyze and object to in the proposed budget presented this afternoon.

For now, it’s important to note that:

🔸Security Services have been allocated more than Health, Agriculture or Primary and Secondary Education. This Govt values guns more than equipping hospitals, improving schools or feeding the nation;

🔸Public Health and Public Education have been allocated less than that mandated in the Abuja and Dakar Declarations respectively. There’s been an acute failure to comply with international protocols that emphasize the obligation to secure basic services for the people;

🔸Toll gates are going up in USD;

🔸A surcharge will be imposed on more expensive vehicles,

🔸A wealth tax will be imposed on houses valued over US$100,000. (Note how there’s a focus on USD when it comes to taxation but on ZWL when it comes to expenditure;

🔸Fuel levies to be increased;

🔸A new levy to be imposed on sugary drinks;

🔸The Youth, Sports and Arts Ministry remains grossly underfunded with the vote barely enough to construct a stadium;

🔸The income tax free threshold is less than ZWL1 million and will soon be eroded by inflation;

🔸The Budget was presented in our unstable ZWL notwithstanding that the economy has largely dollarized meaning that it’s a tabulation of figures that will be meaningless by the end of 2024 when these amounts are eroded by inflation;

🔸A new top up tax will be introduced for MNCs.

🔸Nothing was said about failed allocations from the previous budget. There will be more of the same when it comes to broken promises on allocation;

🔸The budget is anti-people, anti-investment and anti-poor. Little has been out in place to stimulate growth, improve productivity, improve employment, ensure currency stability, address the exchange rate disparities, address the debt crisis or enhance confidence.

It’s a mess.

We will raise our voices on these and all issues of importance to the citizens. A pro-people budget is not a matter of rhetoric but a pre-requisite to ensure we begin to put in place measures to fix the broken economy.

Zimbabweans should not be distracted by the apparent attempts to preempt the SADC process in Harare. To state the least: the SADC Troika meets this week; and Zimbabwe can forget the Chairmanship of SADC next year if they persist in their disdain of the regional body.

@ProfJNMoyo So what’s wrong with a brief for a free fair and credible elections. Zimbabweans deserve that at the barest minimum.

7. On a factual basis CCC had agents in 98% + of the pollings. It is also fact that there are 12200+ v11s while the remainder is info we got as text messages via our alternative communication systems. On that end we are covered. Other issues are outside of my purview

5. We pointed last year that ZEC was moving pple from their traditional polling stations in urban areas. ZEC did not invest in letting pple know where they were voting. They shut down their portal & on election day their *265# on election day. We had to come up with alternatives
