@advocatemahere Last night i went watch the game with Congolese it was as if i was watching Zimbabwe play.Just love for African brothers and sisters doing well at World Cup.Yet if you celebrate like this in SA they will turn against you.We saw it during Rugby world cup

🔸Nobody hates South Africa. Everybody hates xenophobia. If hate watching a mere soccer match causes this much hurt, imagine the hurt that comes with watching your compatriots being treated inhumanely because of their nationality or the colour of their skin in another African nation? What we have observed over the last few days is that that hurt can’t be switched off just because a soccer match is on. People carry it within their souls. Hearts bleed. So the aggrieved will protest in solidarity with those who are being attacked in an effort to make a statement. This is sometimes the only way people have to express how pained they are by the inhumanity they’re witnessing on African soil. We never ever saw Nelson Mandela throwing stones at Kwame Nkrumah, Samora Machel and Julius Nyerere so what is this now? We need new leaders.🇿🇼

@only__alexia Another moment in Sandton

A man always plays with death 😨😱😨😱😂🤣🤣😨😱

@chrissy10charu If Kuda really owed this guy and there was an agreement don't you think with his money that's more the Tungwarara's money he would have paid.You really believe Rutendo removed Sanctions?🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

This engagement benefits more than just the party, it benefits everyone involved,the Advisor wanted him to stop criticising the President, but by so doing our Central Committee member Dr Kudakwashe Tagwirei, and all, will also benefit, havachatukwe... If Rutendo stops the criticism, then all those linked to the matter will also stop being insulted. The fact that he is now willing to apologise shows we are reaching the goal we all wanted from the beginning. Pamberi ne engagement 👏👏

@chrissy10charu Are you saying believing Rutendo story and saying Tagwirei is the problem

On Matinyarare's issue, All that was needed was to honour the debt they had agreed on. Remember, Matinyarare was on our side until he realised the money he was promised was not coming. That’s when he changed. If everything had been settled, he would have been quiet. Instead, he escalated until he started attacking the President, and everyone stayed silent. Yet you had the capacity to sit him down and resolve this amicably at a round table. That’s all he wanted. Now that an advisor has stepped in and done what you failed to do, you’re making noise left, right and centre... mutikwanire imi!!! Kana cde akapanduka, munogara naye pasi kuti chii chirikunetsa cde... monzwaka nyaya yaita musoro uteme... but as for Matinyarare he was clear, he didn't hide his reasons dzekupanduka, saka mairegerei kuzvigadzirisa, so that we have less noise in the streets...

@TendayiZinyama @paultungwarara @matinyarare He didn't engage he bought Rutendo.Engagement failed but money and car won.Rutendo is a mercenary he needs money not wisdom.The advisor is destroying the president reputation.

Dr Paul T Tungwarara @paultungwarara has publicly supported #CAB3 and he stood with President Mnangagwa zvekudaro. His loyalty to President Mnangagwa is UNQUESTIONABLE . Him engaging @matinyarare is from a good heart and a good gesture . Others like Mliswa and Maponga tried and failed to engage with a renage Rutendo until the Advisor PUBLICLY Engaged with Rutendo and gave him an offer which shows that Rutendo was a disgruntled person who opposed because of hunger and he felt sidelined that he did work and wasn't paid for. So kudos to the Advisor the only person who managed to silence Rutendo. All these engagements were done publicly .

@KMutisi I've always suspected this Tungwarara guy.He is working against his principal.He knows Rutendo didn't remove Sanctions and is paying him for attacking the president.

At least now we know the person pushing the “you are owed” money nonsense. Rutendo is owed nothing, millions of Zimbabweans went out of the way to protest against sanctions. The President u claim to love is still on sanctions after all. You are promoting kak behaviour just you need to be called out. Politics is about fair criticism and rational opposition, crude attacks are unacceptable and at the very least, should be punishable not rewarded.

@matinyarare Rutendo this is the Zanu pf way of saying things don't take them seriously. The president said he is not for an extension then Zanu pf said we can force him now they say they are ready for a referendum but the answer will be but the constitution is not allowing.its Zanu pf guys

A few months ago, I did say that a referendum is coming. The judges have clearly told President Mnangagwa that CAB3 will not go through without a referendum, and so did the Army chiefs. As a result, they are now preparing minds for a referendum. If they go for a referendum and carry it out fairly — without intimidation and by allowing those opposed to the Bill to campaign — they will see less resistance from people like me.

@darras50ma @daddyhope And i always say the constitution was not people driven but a negotiated deal between Zanu pf and MDC.So changing it was easy for Zanu pf.Destroy mdc the authors and all is gone

@daddyhope @RobsonMashiri The Drafters of COPAC were naive to leave a loop-hole that could be exploited by the ruling party that 2yrs is not a term. This is a pitfall even shrewed lawyers would find it a hard nut to crack.

The real problem is that General Constantino Chiwenga allowed Emmerson Mnangagwa to remove the running mate clause through Constitutional Amendment No. 2 in 2021, @RobsonMashiri. Mnangagwa is a long-distance runner. He plans his moves carefully and, whether we like him or not, we have to acknowledge that. He knew exactly what he wanted before the 2023 election, which is why he supported the removal of the running mate clause. The running mate clause meant that a President and Vice President were elected together on the same ticket, making it impossible for the President to simply dismiss the Vice President. Similar systems have worked elsewhere in the region. Malawi is a good example. When President Bingu wa Mutharika died in office, constitutional provisions ensured that Vice President Joyce Banda succeeded him despite attempts to sideline her politically. Allowing the removal of the running mate clause was Chiwenga’s first major mistake. As a result, he now serves as Vice President entirely at the pleasure of Emmerson Mnangagwa. He is appointed, not elected. That means he can also be removed. If Constitutional Amendment Bill No. 3 becomes law, it will further consolidate Mnangagwa’s control over the succession process. In practical terms, Chiwenga could be dismissed and replaced by another Vice President, something that would have been far more difficult under the running mate system. That is why this Bill is not really about Chiwenga biding his time and waiting for his turn. It is about eliminating him as a serious constitutional contender for the presidency. Once the Bill becomes law, Mnangagwa will have even greater room to reshape the political landscape in his favour. He could remove Chiwenga and appoint someone else, and that possibility is precisely why the battle over Constitutional Amendment Bill No. 3 has become so significant for Chiwenga and his allies.

@mamoe0 @daddyhope Maybe the other question is does he really have the power that we think he has.Was he the brains and power behind 2017 coup or just the face.Was there ever an agreement between ED and Chiwenga.How will he benefit to a vote by mps than the majority.

@RobsonMashiri @daddyhope We are talking about a man who finished Mugabe term of office. Had his 2 year terms but still wants 2 more years. He is not ready to leave power. Sad For Soko

Zimbabwean parliamentarians resumed debate on the controversial Constitutional Amendment Bill No. 3 today at 9:30 am for a second day of deliberations. Seventy Members of Parliament are pencilled in to contribute to the debate. Among its most controversial provisions, the Bill seeks to extend President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s term of office by an additional two years and to increase future presidential terms from five years to seven years. The names ticked on this speaking list are those of non-ZANUPF Members of Parliament scheduled to participate in the debate. If the Bill is passed, it will mark one of the most significant constitutional changes since the adoption of Zimbabwe’s 2013 Constitution. The Bill has also created a growing standoff between President Emmerson Mnangagwa and a group of retired military generals who have publicly condemned it on at least two occasions. The generals met Mnangagwa and expressed their opposition to the proposed changes, with the President said to have responded that whoever wins the battle over the Bill will win. The stakes could not be higher. If Mnangagwa signs the Bill into law, it would effectively extinguish the presidential ambitions of Vice President General Constantino Chiwenga, the man who led the 2017 military coup that brought Mnangagwa to power. By replacing direct presidential elections with a system in which the President is elected by Parliament, the Bill would fundamentally alter Zimbabwe’s political landscape. Given the constituency boundaries established during the last delimitation exercise, which increased the ruling party’s advantage in Parliament, such a system would also make it significantly more difficult for any opposition leader to realistically secure the presidency through the parliamentary route.

@mamoe0 @daddyhope Very sad indeed and currently with limited choices. He can resign in protest and ignite a mass uprising get the people behind him and end ED's rule or wait for 2030 whilst he maneuvers the party and public political terrain.He can also go public that he is against this bill.

@daddyhope If this bill unfortunately passes we are stuck with Zanupf for long.As for Chiwenga it won't exactly be his down fall if he can play his political cards right in Zanupf.He can benefit more from it.Chiwenga cant beat Chamisa in an open race vote by the people.

@caesarzvayi Well said.Rest in Peace Linda.

I met Linda Masarira in person ONLY once @ Globe Trotter, Old Mazowe Road. She was with her husband. They had stopped over for some lagers. We exchanged pleasantaries. Over the years I warmed up to her after listening to her speak at various forums, the Twitter spaces etc. She was as sharp as they come. Zimbabwe's political discourse is poorer in her abscence. To the myopic in our midst who are celebrating her demise over perceived political differences, remember the Latin aphorism "media vita in morte sumus" (in the midst of life, we're in death), in short everyone born of a woman has an expiry date on earth. Infact, it is said WE BEGIN DYING THE DAY WE ARE BORN! Your time will come too but be remembered for sonething other than your carbon footprint! Linda ran her race. And she is survived by a family, including 5 children, spare a thought for them. Go vent your frustrations somewhere where they do not come across your nonsense!

@noto2030 Are Generals supposed to be elected.The president appoints them as he sees fit.Soldiers follow command not an individual or name.

Are you aware that 98% of every single member, officer and general in the Zimbabwe Defence Forces have no trust whatsoever in, and completely despise, the imposed General Walter Alsher Tapfumanei? He has no support within the ranks at all.

@VMusinachirevo Composition of the Burkina Army is different from Zim.Captains there are better positioned. He was leading the whole presidential guard which had power or influence

CAPTAIN is not that an influential position in the army, what I don't know is how a mere CAPTAIN Traore took over the reigns of Burkina Faso ahead of his seniors like MAJORS and COLONELS?

@DandaroOnline Didn't he take a car from Wiky.Apa aramba iyi because its not coming to him but to the youths.

@rmus05 @CrimeWatchZW Being in the Zim Embassy is like being in Zimbabwe the Zim rules apply.She is just being dramatic.Let her go try it at any other Embassy in that country she is then she will understand the rules.

@CrimeWatchZW ChiZanu Zanu only works in Zimbabwe, in the real outside world it doesn't work.

WATCH | A woman called the British police after claiming that she was detained by staff at the Zimbabwean Embassy in London.

@IshumaelSi58170 @CrimeWatchZW Try it at any country embassy.Most dont even allow your phone.you leave it by the locker.Embassy rules are tough guys.

@CrimeWatchZW What if she went to Embassy for sorting out her things and nature has no respect, then it called her to toilet? Except if she went to Officials' toilet and for security reasons, they were right to accuse her of forcing herself in.

@MachipisaPamela @CrimeWatchZW @Muyeradziva00 True bad advice.Marry Chiwenga tried it and ended up with no leg no hand

@CrimeWatchZW @Muyeradziva00 She should fight her battles with Wicky involving the crocodile 🐊 will make her regret .

WATCH | Wicknell Chivayo’s ex-wife has reportedly been arrested after he filed complaints against her for allegedly denying him access to their children and for allegedly taking one of his devices containing personal pictures. She is currently being held at Highlands Police Station.
