President Mnangagwa has signed into law constitutional amendments to extend his term by 2 years until 2030. The amendments, which also replace direct presidential elections in favour of a vote by parliament, faced widespread resistance but universal support from Zanu PF MPs
WATCH | Tafadzwa Matanhuse from Chiredzi is expected to appear in court this morning. Police issued a warrant for his arrest after a video surfaced in which he passionately expressed his frustration over the destruction of vendorsβ stalls by the Chiredzi Town Council.
After learning that the police were looking for him, Tafadzwa voluntarily handed himself over yesterday. He was accompanied by his legal representative, Martin Mureri.
Police have charged Tafadzwa with inciting public violence. The charge is linked to statements he made following the demolition of the vendorsβ stalls, an action that affected the livelihoods of many people who depend on informal trading to support their families.
