At around 2.30pm on 24 May 2026, a white Toyota Hilux double cab, registration number AGA 1443, arrived at Zuva Service Station in Machipisa, where a cross-border bus from Botswana had stopped to drop off passengers returning from a long journey.
Shortly after the vehicle arrived, two casually dressed middle-aged men got out of the Hilux and walked towards the bus. They approached one of the bus crew members and held a private conversation away from the passengers.
Moments later, information began circulating that the men were allegedly officials linked to the @ZACConline_ who had followed the bus. It was also alleged that they threatened to make arrests and said the bus could be taken to storage unless an arrangement was made.
A uniformed officer from the @PoliceZimbabwe was also seen standing next to the Toyota Hilux holding a firearm, a situation that reportedly created fear and panic among the passengers and bus crew.
After some time, the bus crew member who had been speaking with the men returned and informed passengers that everyone was required to contribute US$10 each, including people whose luggage was still on the bus even though they had already reached their destination. According to the crew member, the men were demanding US$700 to “settle the matter” and leave without taking further action.
Passengers eventually paid the requested US$10 contributions, and after receiving the money, the men left the scene in their vehicle.
The incident left many passengers confused and unsettled, with no official explanation provided at the time about what had actually happened.

We need new leaders.🇿🇼
SELLING OUT TO ZANU‑PF IS A DEATH SENTENCE .These opposition figures thought defecting to Mnangagwa’s CAB3 Madness would buy them protection. Instead, they signed their own death warrants. The party does not reward loyalty it disposes of those it no longer needs.
Strongly reported or widely suspected cases of defectors who later died under troubling circumstances:
🔷️Gift Konjana – Former MDC Alliance councillor who crossed over and won a Chegutu ward on a ZANU‑PF ticket. Went missing early in 2026, later found dead in Norton. Whether internal rivalries or a “cleanup” operation, another turncoat swallowed by the system.
🔷️Lilian Timveos – Ex‑MDC Senator who defected in 2021. Died at Avenues Clinic in Harare. Took crumbs from the centre, ended up in the ground.
🔷️Tabeth Chimhamha – Vocal activist who died under suspicious circumstances in late 2025, reportedly in Pretoria. Poisoning is widely alleged; the timing and silence around it are convenient for those in power.
🔷️Linda Masarira – Opposition activist and LEAD leader found dead on 24 May 2026 at 43. Official reports speak of “health issues,” but in Mnangagwa’s Zimbabwe, “natural causes” often smell like state‑sponsored rot.
🔷️The pattern behind the headlines:
Defectors in Mashonaland West and other regions have died in “accidents,” “illnesses,” or sudden collapses.
Historic MDC turncoats were picked off by car crashes, cancer, or poison‑rumour trails.
🔷️Chegutu and Norton figures disappeared amid factional battles, as if being cleared away.
This is Mnangagwa’s signature use them, discard them, bury them. It is suicide. The crocodile smiles, takes your soul, and then spits out your corpse. Zimbabwe deserves a future beyond this gang of thugs. General Chiwenga is our last hope.
After years of broken promises, empty speeches, and empty pockets, many of us are exhausted and in despair, 95% of Zimbabweans see General Chiwenga not just as a leader, but as a symbol of resistance, of someone who still remembers what it means to fight for the people.
Whether they are right or wrong, this is the cry of a tired nation holding on to one last chance.
Retired Lieutenant General Winston Sigauke Mapuranga.
Mr President @CyrilRamaphosa — if you endorse Emmerson Mnangagwa and his cartel's plans to capture the Zimbabwean state, even by accident, get ready to receive far more Zimbabweans at Beitbridge.
State capture is a phrase you know intimately. You built your authority on opposing it in South Africa. Yet at Mnangagwa's farm you were photographed alongside the very men engineering its replication in Zimbabwe.
You face a simple choice. Stay out of our affairs and let Zimbabweans solve this ourselves. Or use your SADC chairmanship to back the rule of law and constitutionalism in Zimbabwe. There is no third option.
We have long stopped waiting for SADC, the African Union, or any foreign capital to rescue us. We are on our own. And in a strange way, that knowledge is liberating. The world owes us nothing. The work of liberating Zimbabwe is ours. We are ready for it.
You cannot help us by helping those who are suffocating us.

🔹Zimbabwe wakes up to an unsettling silence. 🚨 No motorcade, no airport farewell photos, and zero explanation. As the critical Constitutional Amendment No. 3 hearing nears on May 20, 2026, one urgent question echoes across the nation: Where is President Emmerson Mnangagwa? We demand answers to the whereabouts of the most important office holder in the land who wears the straitjacket 🧥!
🚨Alert: President Liberty Hamauswa has just been arrested, with 3 other students at Mbare Magistrate Court, while attending the court case of Emmanuel Sitima and Takunda Mhuka.
🔵Constitution Defenders Forum political and civic activist Freeman Chari, a biomedical scientist and software engineer, explaining in Shona language why he is opposed to Constitutional Amendment Bill N0.3.
For those who don't understand Shona, he is basically saying it is wrong for President Emmerson Mnangagwa to extend his term of office by two more years to 2030 because the constitution doesn't allow him to do that even if he, let's assume, he has done well in office.
He says the late former Botswana president Festus Mogae built a lot of hospitals and infrastructure for hi country, but when his time to go came he left, in fact before that.
Chari says there is no justification at all for Mnangagwa to stay any longer as the constitution doesn't allow that even if he would have supposedly performed wonders in office, which he didn't.
He further says he is opposed to the proposal to elect a President through parliament because the constitution provides for a direct vote and in any case Zimbabwe is coming from the parliamentary system between 1980 and 1987 where initially the Prime Minister was elected by parliament, and in which the president was elected by the legislature from 1987 to 1990.
He goes on to further speak about delimitation of constituencies and gerrymandering, and the process of entrenchment of Zanu PF rule through the parliamentary model.
Chari also deals with other key issues which are part of the raft of political, electoral and governance changes in the constitutional amendments, including the Gender Commission.
In short, he says the amendments are bad through and through for him.
For too long, Africa’s resources have been extracted, the value captured elsewhere, the environmental damage left behind.
No more exploitation. No more plundering.
The people of Africa must benefit - first & most - from the resources of Africa.
Zimbabwe has nothing bro:
No 5 star hotels
No mega cities
No speed trains
No world class stadium
No Tap water😭
No Sewage systems
No Healthcare
No currency
No roads
No leadership😭
Just Churches, regime enabler socialites, Zvigananda, demonic politicians and Podcasts.
Alert Urgent 🚨 🚨 🚨
ZDF & Zimbabwe. Behind the scenes, ED is building a private kingdom. A leak reveals the final draft for ZDF restructuring ED has gone rogue. The military is being privatized. Read, wake up, and share this with the world. I have warned you.
@StateDept Mr. Secretary it will not work. Sometimes that is the reason why people don't understand and ended up blaming America for their sufferings because the targeted people are by far suffering from those sanctions but infact it will affect the innocent majority.
