We love to dance at Mtetwa & Nyambirai. 💃🏽🕺 We’ve had a rough few weeks recently. So to let off a bit of steam we teamed up with @bustoptv to have a bit of fun and take up the #JerusalemaDanceChallenge. Watch the full video here: m.facebook.com/BUSTOPTV/video…

An excellent attendance today, appreciated the "Good Luck" message from @zimbabweyauya -- the chilly day grew into something special! The singing & dancing enthralled those within the ambit of the Embassy We will be uploading more photos and videos during this evening flickr.com/photos/zhro-uk… @ROHRZimbabweorg @cdfzim @SouthendCcc @ChangeRadioZW @steadyMasi22 @ZapuPublicity @Marcie4LOC @DougColtart @FelixNdiweni @ZimbabweFreedo1 @MakomboreroH @mamakaCleo @NicolaWatson13 @BBCAfrica @MacBelts

#Zimbabwe: @pressfreedom is relieved that journalist Gideon Madzikatidze has been released after three months behind bars. Madzikatidze was arrested in connection to a @Bulawayo24News story on corruption allegations. Authorities should now drop their case against the journalist, who is due back in court on May 7 on charges of cyber bullying and broadcasting without a license. Read @pressfreedom’s previous coverage on this case: cpj.org/2026/02/zimbab…

Today we peacefully protested at Zimbabwe Embassy and delivered a petition,to the British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer @10DowningStreet The protest and petition was against the @ZANUPF_Official regime's agenda to extend the suffering, corruption, and incompetence through CAB3

Pictures: Zimbabweans based in the UK today demonstrating against the CAB 3.

Maonero angu muchiKaranga. Ndinoti KWETE to CAB3!

Today I submitted my written objection to the Constitution of Zimbabwe Amendment (No. 3) Bill — CAB3 — to the Clerk of Parliament, in terms of Section 328(4) of the Constitution. I reject all 21 proposed amendments. Every one of them takes power from the people and hands it to the executive. The most repugnant: — Stripping you of your right to directly elect your President. — Extending presidential, parliamentary and council terms from 5 to 7 years, possibly resetting the clock to 2033. — Letting the President handpick 10 additional senators — a firewall of patronage. CAB3 is the single biggest threat to democracy, peace and stability in Zimbabwe since the November 2017 coup that toppled Robert Mugabe. There is absolutely nothing in these 21 amendments that solves corruption, eliminates poverty or protects freedom of expression. Nothing creates a job. Nothing stabilises a price. CAB3 buttresses the repression and dictatorship we already live under. Silence is a vote. Silence sides with the cartels. Silence sides with those who want to decide the next President FOR YOU. Deadline: 17 May 2026. Pick up your pen. Send your submission to the Clerk of Parliament. The Constitution is yours. Defend it. #RejectCAB3 #DefendTheConstitution

“If you’re a kleptocrat who wishes to buy your way to the Presidency, I have wonderful news for you! Because #CAB3 embeds a monitoring and evaluation mechanism to make sure your money goes exactly where it’s expected….” NEW EPISODE DROPPING SOON…. STAY TUNED! #NoToCAB3

⚖️🇿🇼 Human rights lawyer @DougColtart has formally submitted objections to Zimbabwe’s controversial Constitutional Amendment Bill No. 3 — just weeks after he was assaulted during chaotic parliamentary hearings on the same proposals. Coltart was attacked at the City Sports Centre in Harare on March 31 while protesting alleged intimidation and being denied a chance to speak during public hearings on #CAB3. His glasses were broken and his phone was seized during the violence. Now he is urging Zimbabweans to also submit objections before the May 18 deadline. The proposed constitutional amendments could extend President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s term beyond 2028, extend Parliament’s term and remove direct presidential elections. As opposition to #CAB3 intensifies, the battle over Zimbabwe’s constitutional future is becoming increasingly charged. 🔴 nehandaradio.com/2026/05/15/dou…

This week the Deputy Speaker of @ParliamentZim shielded Government from accountability over the plans to build houses for Members of Parliament on @MonavaleWetland Ramsar Site. When Hon. James insisted he’d been directed to bring his question that Wednesday, the ZANU PF Chief Whip Togarepi (who is also implicated in the plans to invade the Wetland of International Importance) tried to have Hon. James thrown out of Parliament. @gladyshlatywayo raised a point of order to try and to bring some decorum to the House, but was overruled by the Deputy Speaker. We need answers! Why are wetland invaders being shielded? #SaveMonavaleVlei

@daddyhope Thanks Hope. 🙏

Well done @DougColtart for providing leadership👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

The President, Liberty Hamauswa, alongside Dylan, Richard and Takunda appeared before the Mbare Magistrates Court today. The bail ruling has been set for Monday at 2:15 pm. Our position remains clear, all charges are malicious and must be dropped

🚨URGENT ALERT🚨 Our Secretary General @NYASHA_CHAKONA is RIGHT NOW receiving threats from state agents. For demanding the release of our fellow students and President @HamauswaZW . You can kill, torture, abduct but demanding freedom is not a crime. God is the final Judge.

Our new Parliament is a nice building, but I found the extremely in-your-face prominence of CHINA AID’s involvement quite distasteful and disrespectful to our sovereignty as a nation. The word “CHINA” is actually more prominent than the word “ZIMBABWE” at the front of Parliament and there are THREE permanent plaques honoring China Aid. Surely we can show our gratitude for China’s support towards its construction while maintaining a bit of self-respect for ourselves as a nation at the house of the Zimbabwean People.

Thanks @Grok for your insight into his business. How does he compare to other African entrepreneurs?

@bla_enzo @ParliamentZim It is a major and genuine concern. Even at Parliament, they initially refused to allow me to get a return copy. They said we must leave our letters at the security desk. I refused and insisted that I get a return copy. One guy with me was refused entry to the records office.

@DougColtart @ParliamentZim I submitted my objection the very first day. My biggest worry is there's no acknowledgement of my email from the email address. How do I know it's been received?

We successfully submitted our letters to @ParliamentZim objecting to #CAB3. If you haven’t yet, you still can at clerk@parlzim.gov.zw or at the Parliament Building before 18 May 2026. I will post my full letter below. #NoToCAB3

@grok how many megawatts has the Gwanda Solar Power Plant fed into Zimbabwe’s power grid?
