#RightsWednesday The right to bail is a cornerstone of justice, rooted in the principle that every person is presumed innocent until proven guilty. Pre-trial detention should never become punishment before conviction.
The right to liberty and reasonable bail must be protected.
No to the 2030nonsense. CAB 3 affects ordinary citizens and the country continues to face serious challenges. An extension to 2030 would only prolong corruption, abductions, unemployment and the decline of our education system.#NotoCab3#VadzidziVaramba
Poverty and the breakdown of family have secondary effects. This leads to a breakdown in moral standards and to alarming rise in illegitimacy. Students want security and equal rights. Join the female Zinasu cadres as they explore on a very crucial topic tonight!!
In this cold weather, we remember our brothers!Do we have to watch them get punished for their cherished ideal of a democratic and free society,where kids go to school, people live in harmony and share equal opportunities? No man free student activists! @edmnangagwa@ZRP_Zim
You can deploy intelligence officers, surveillance teams, interrogations and intimidation tactics, but you cannot arrest an idea whose time has come. Students will continue to organise, speak and resist. Academic freedom is not a crime.
#FreeZinasu#AcademicFreedom
This mirrors a nation where unemployment, currency collapse, failing hospitals and broken education silence millions daily. We are a generation denied justice, dignity and a future in our own country. To whom it may concern can we fix the economy while criminalizing these voices?
Students know that constitutional changes shape everyday lives. We oppose CAB3 because democracy requires accountability, public participation and institutions independent from political control.
#StudentsSayNoToCab3#VadzidziVaramba#AbafundiBayalile
What kind of democracy doesn't allow students to voice their concerns pertaining national issues?We shall never be Silenced!
The youth shall serve and save this country

No amount of threats, intimidation, or harassment will deter us from exercising our constitutional rights and standing on the side of the masses of our people. This morning, I received a message from an unknown number threatening me with jail if I were to participate in a demonstration. At the moment, I am neither involved in nor planning any demonstration, so I do not know where this individual got such information. However, we all know that when a hyena wants to eat its own cubs, it starts by accusing them of smelling like goats. Mkoma @freemanchari, please help expose and unmask this moron. We are familiar with these intimidation tactics, and we suspect that those behind them may be state security agents seeking to threaten us because of our uncompromising stance on the Constitution of Zimbabwe amendment No3 Bill of 2026. We have made it clear that 2030 nonsense is a big NO. Now they want to intimidate us, but we remain bold, resolute, and unshaken. We will always stand with the masses of our people.

Yes,to answer those who keep asking why we fighting. It is becoz we have been there, followed, interrogated & totured but we made a vow to ourselves to stand as the voices of the suffering students. Therefore you will arrest us,betray us or even kill us but we wont give up now!!
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

The bill is a mess and #StudentsSayNoToCab3. The same government which has not dared to debate education funding, job creation and other essential things like health sector funding and decent wages for civil servants want to take away our power to call them to order every 5 years.
STUDENTS SAY NO
As President Liberty Hamauswa and three other students appear before the Mbare Magistrates’ Court today, the Spokesperson, Cde Joni, joins students across the country in calling for their immediate and unconditional release. #Asijiki !
