On CNN this evening I explained that recourse to courts for the presidential election dispute is an academic exercise for the opposition as history tells us that the opposition always loses in presidential election court cases. I also spoke about the massive economic implications for ordinary citizens if this...

@CNN Those issues you shed light on were crucial. It's a great thing they have greater correspondence to what AU and SADC has said 🙏💛

@CNN You have been amplifying the oppressed voices of Zimbabweans in international media on a daily basis. Thank you. Sad toxic politics can’t recognise the impact of your voice in telling the Zimbabwean story to the world.

@CNN The world should know the judges were already given USD 400k recently. The courts are captured. The world should also see ED saying they are the police & the courts & military that are captured

@CNN Emphasis must be on the captured status of the courts not on history.

@CNN The more Hopewell speaks to the international community the more some ppl will start to believe that Zimbabwe is a democracy. I suppose he says all these things while freely in Zimbabwe exercising freedom of speech. At the same time Zimbabwe is a country marred by controversy

@CNN We need other means. Going to court is just same as endorsing the election. Let them go forward with their inauguration if that's the case.

The Zimbabwean election has two contentious issues, the process and the presidential results dispute. The international community has chosen to focus on the flawed process whilst the Zimbabwean opposition is concentrating on the disputed presidential figures. Most African ambassadors who support SADC’s preliminary report are however confused by the opposition’s focus on results from a flawed election with glaring irregularities. They are saying that if the opposition says it won, it becomes difficult to sustain the flawed election argument which the United Nations has taken. They argue that the issue becomes about election results, and that if the opposition fails to produce the V11s for every polling station, that is the end of the story. The opposition says it has all the V11s as its leader Nelson Chamisa says in this video statement, so all concerned are now waiting for the production of the V11s that confirm a Nelson Chamisa victory. The opposition has deliberately said less about annulling the whole election, something that the international community thought would be a more powerful argument. Some in the opposition have argued that this is because parliament comes with money for the party, it means that annulling the elections takes away the money whilst the dispute is being resolved. Whilst the observer missions agree that there were glaring election day irregularities, they also argue that if the CCC dispute is going to be about elections results, then there is very little they can do without V11s for every polling station. SADC Ambassadors have privately defended the SADC observer team mission preliminary report. They are calling for an even tougher final report, but they are saying that is where it will end because the opposition accepts the parliamentary results, and its dispute is on the presidential result. They are saying CCC can’t trash the whole election whilst accepting part of the results from the same election. In short, without producing V11s from all polling stations, that is the end of the story. It would have been more powerful to dismiss the whole electoral process, but CCC has taken a different route of focusing on the presidential result. All concerned are now waiting for the production of the V11s, that is where this election study is now at, without which that will be the end of story.

VIDEO Democratic Front (DF) president Mathias Mpuuga on #TheGrindPodcast with Patrick Kamara 933 KFM: 1. "...I am an active politician, I have moved in every inch and space of this country. I know where his [General Yoweri Museveni support is, it is not 71% it is not even 50%, and he knows it too." 2. "I am on record before and after the elections for having spoken out. I went out of my way and wrote to every political party in the opposition, warning and inviting them for a commonality of purpose...Immediately after the elections, I held a press conference spoke about the same issues, I had warned colleagues about that we never cared about and they happened. So, I feel that I am vindicated to the fact that I raised the alarm. Those who didn’t care, there is no much I could do to drag them." 3. "Also I could have raised the challenge about that election in the supreme court, but I was not a presidential candidate and I did not have permission to raise the same on behalf of any candidate. Remember that in one of the amendments that I had intended in the presidential elections act probably out of ignorance or excitement, was to amend the law to the fact that a citizen can challenge the election in a supreme court as long as that citizen is a voter and there is a proof that his challenge is not a waste of court’s time. I had intended that when that happens when presidential candidates are either compromised or timid, a courageous citizen can challenge that election. That didn’t happen, and the opportunity was lost." 4. "What have I done as DF? The DF is is going to challenge particular actions leading to that election and our petition to the Constitutional court is ready, if you want to know how we have moved and that we are not sleeping as the DF." #RealChangeActNow
