A forced marriage is as good as non existent. The lady relates a rough and horrible path. She can't afford even a smile whilst her husband wants to pretend as if everything is ok. She regrets.

1/ 𝗙𝗥𝗔𝗨𝗗𝗟𝗘𝗡𝗧 𝗣𝗢𝗟𝗟 𝗦𝗨𝗥𝗩𝗘𝗬 𝗕𝗬 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗡𝗧𝗛𝗨𝗥𝗦𝗧 𝗙𝗢𝗨𝗡𝗗𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 (𝗕𝗙) The recent poll survey implying that Nelson Chamisa, is set to defeat President Emmerson Mnangagwa in the 2023 elections is designed to mislead and push political agendas.

2/ Firstly, it's essential to shed light on BF, a Johannesburg-based "think-tank" established by the Oppenheimer Family in 2004. The foundation is a guise for the Oppenheimer family to fund activities of CSOs & NGOs with the ultimate goal of regime change in Africa & Zimbabwe.

3/ The founder, J. Oppenheimer, who was the Chairman of DeBeers and worked with Anglo-American, is not an ally of Zimbabwe. The CEO of the BF, former Nigerian Pres, O. Obasanjo, is also not a friend of Zimbabwe & has worked with T. Biti, a key driver of regime change in Zimbabwe.

4/ Biti & Obasanjo have even published a book together, "Democracy Works," to push the regime change agenda in politics. Given the history of the BF & its leadership, it is not surprising that the recent report is tailor-made to serve their agenda for regime change in Zimbabwe.

5/ It is nothing new and is simply a political play for regime change. It is also important to note that every election season, similar polls in favour of Chamisa are conducted, but the end result remains the same - Chamisa suffers defeat at the hands of ZANU PF.

6/ The integrity of this latest poll should also be questioned, as it was published by Gregory Mills and Ray Hartley, who posed as journalists. However, Mills is actually the Head of the Brenthurst Foundation, and Hartley is the Research Director of the Brenthurst Foundation.

7/ This raises questions about the objectivity of the report against President Mnangagwa, as the duo commissioned their own research and published it without independent auditing.

8/ Even hostile local journalists, such as CCC activist journalist Hopewell, have not covered the report, as it is widely regarded as cheap propaganda by the BF. Hopewell has even written about the lack of opposition presence in ZANU PF strongholds such as Murehwa & UMP.

9/ The survey was conducted by London-based organization SABI Strategy Group, which claims to have no links with CCC yet the study is an attempt to shape public opinion & influence voting behavior in favour of CCC, especially given the West's friendship with Chamisa.

10/ The methodology used in data gathering and the sample and locality of research participants is also questionable. The study might actually have been conducted among diaspora Zimbabweans who are inclined to support Chamisa.
