Haiwawo nonsense! This paid acolyte who has sold his soul to the most corrupt politician ever to emerge in Zimbabwe! You Maponga speak big English too and have made your name through it, you bloody hypocrite! We have an absolute monarchy in Southern Africa - what does Eswatini have to show for it except Mswati’s long line of wives and concubines! Nonsense! You will not be allowed to run away from representative government by your paid promotion of some primordial power structure that never existed over all the peoples who constitute Zimbabwe today! Fuck off Maponga!

Yet he's been against Ndebeles having their King. Not a King of Zim but a cultural leader of Ndebeles. Today here he is advocating for a King over all culturally diverse Zim. This is the problem with Zim. Anything for Ndebeles is viewed as tribalism but if for Shonas, its not.

An hour ago, I was on South Africa’s public broadcaster, the SABC News News discussing the implications of Zimbabwe’s new law, Constitutional Amendment Bill No. 3, which came into effect two days ago. The amendment extends President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s term of office by an additional two years to 2030, removes the direct election of the President by citizens and transfers that responsibility to Parliament, and effectively removes the elections that had been scheduled for 2028. We also discussed what these changes mean not only for Zimbabwe but for the entire region, particularly South Africa, which has borne the brunt of migration from Zimbabwe, both legal and illegal, driven largely by the country’s prolonged economic and political crises. What happens in Zimbabwe never stays in Zimbabwe. Political instability, economic decline, and democratic backsliding inevitably have consequences for neighbouring countries. That is why Constitutional Amendment Bill No. 3 is not merely a Zimbabwean issue; it is a regional issue with far-reaching political, economic, and social implications.

"We want an electoral system the citizens can trust" – Hon. Chikombo Hon. Chikombo delivered a passionate rejection of Constitutional Amendment Bill No. 3 (#CAB3) in Parliament, arguing that the proposed changes fail to address the real issues facing Zimbabwe's democracy. According to Chikombo, the Bill does not eliminate electoral toxicity, heal national divisions, or strengthen reconciliation. Instead, he warned that it centralises power and takes decision-making further away from ordinary citizens. "Election toxicity is not removed by extending terms, but by reforming power," he said. He argued that Zimbabwe does not need fewer elections, it needs better elections that are free, credible, and trusted by the people. In one of the most striking moments of his presentation, Chikombo said the Bill "transfers power from the citizens" and sends the message that "their vote is dangerous." Watch the full video to hear his detailed arguments and decide for yourself: Does Zimbabwe need constitutional amendments, or does it need electoral reforms that restore public trust? 🎥 Watch now and join the conversation. #CAB3 #Zimbabwe #Parliament #ElectoralReform #Democracy #Governance #ZimbabwePolitics

Political tensions are fast rising in Zimbabwe over Constitutional Amendment Bill N0.3 which seeks to introduce a raft of far-reaching political, electoral and governance system changes, including elongating the electoral cycle from five to seven years and extend President Emmerson Mnangagwa's rule by two more years form 2028 to 2030. Government's explanation is that Mnangagwa will after the contentious changes get a new seven-year term, instead of the five years he is currently serving, and do a lengthened second term from 2023 to 2030 retrospectively.

Changambire Maponga MapoNga Munyuki III Mara-Rah argues that Zimbabwe’s current system of 285 chiefs is not an authentic continuation of the country’s indigenous structures of governance. He insists they’re fake Chiefs. Rather, he sees the current system as one shaped by colonial rule and retained after independence. In his view, legitimate African governance should instead be reconstructed around Zimbabwe’s older totemic and clan-based traditions, in which political authority, identity and territorial responsibility were rooted in ancestral lineages and totems. What are your thoughts?

Dr Joshua Maponga - The Classroom Must Serve African Development Joshua Maponga has done it again. In this clip from the 3 June premiere in Dar es Salaam of The Spearhead’s documentary challenging the Western narrative on Tanzania's post-election violence, ‘What Happened on October 29?’ the philosopher called for Tanzania to toss out its colonial-era curriculum. He suggested the government prepare young people to become stewards of the east African country’s vast natural resources. Indeed, Tanzania ranks third in Africa for critical mineral reserves. Half of Tanzania’s exports are minerals, which generate $2.5 billion annually, according to the US International Trade Administration. Plus, revenues are expected to surge to $6.6 billion by 2027. So do you agree with Maponga that Tanzanians should develop the skills to take control of their natural wealth? And what is education like in your African country? Drop us a comment.

Two cases which were brought before the Constitutional Court of Zimbabwe challenging Constitutional Amendment Bill No. 3 (CAB 3) have been struck off, NOT dismissed. CAB 3, which seeks, among other things, to extend President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s term of office and change the method of electing a president from direct election by citizens to election by Parliament, requires two referendums in law, but the ZANUPF faction sponsoring it wants to avoid a referendum. The Constitutional Court struck both cases off the roll this morning. It is important to understand that the cases were not dismissed on their merits. Rather, the Court held that the issues raised could not originate and be determined solely by the Constitutional Court and should first be ventilated in another forum, High Court. Professor Lovemore Maduku, who is arguing the cases, has indicated that they will now proceed to the High Court. Should the applicants fail to obtain the relief they seek there, the matters will inevitably return to the Constitutional Court on appeal. Many lawyers have described the Constitutional Court’s decision as an example of constitutional avoidance. In their view, the Court has declined to confront what has become a highly contentious constitutional question, preferring instead to defer consideration of the substantive issues. A central argument in the war veterans’ challenge, led by Professor Madhuku, is that Constitutional Amendment Bill No. 3 was discussed and approved by Cabinet, which included President Mnangagwa, the two Vice Presidents, and Cabinet ministers. Professor Madhuku argues that because President Mnangagwa stands to benefit directly from provisions extending his term of office, he should not have participated in deliberations on the amendments. According to the argument, the Constitution prohibits public officials from participating in decisions in which they have a direct personal interest. However, the Constitutional Court did not determine the merits of that argument, ruling instead that the matter should be heard elsewhere first. The legal battle is therefore far from over. It now moves to the High Court and, whatever the outcome there, is likely to find its way back to the Constitutional Court for a final determination.

She also raised concerns about electoral reforms, political violence, corruption, and the need for an electoral system that citizens can trust. "The people did not ask for this Bill. CAB 3 does not create a single job and should be subjected to a referendum to avoid a conflict of interest. We want an electoral system citizens can trust. People want opportunities, not an extension of political power. The problem is not the Constitution; it is political violence and corruption. The voice of the people must remain the voice of our democracy. I stand with unemployed youth, farmers, vendors, workers, mothers and pensioners." — Hon.

WATCH: Speaking in Qatar at the Doha Forum today, US Ambassador to Turkey Ambassador Tom Barrack Tom Barrack suggested that Israel isn’t a Democracy, and should instead aspire to have a monarchy like Islamic countries because monarchy is the best form of government. “Israel can claim it’s a democracy, but in this region, what’s worked the best, whether you like it or you don’t like it, is a benevolent monarchy.” This is very inappropriate commentary from a US Ambassador to be making. Is he saying a monarchy is better than a Democracy or Constitutional Republic? Israel is a Democracy. Ambassador Barrack, like some other admin officials, has been infected with the Arab money virus that clouds judgement.

The Zimbabwean Parliament has adjourned until tomorrow. This is ZANUPF Member of Parliament Perseverance Zhou. This is the quality of debate that unfolded this afternoon in Zimbabwe’s Parliament as MPs debated the controversial Constitutional Amendment Bill No. 3, which seeks to extend Mnangagwa’s term of office to 2030. It was a bootlicking festival led by the President’s most enthusiastic sycophants. In this video, she compares Emmerson Mnangagwa to French football superstar Kylian Mbappé and argues that Mnangagwa should not step down in 2028 when his term of office ends. Using a football analogy, she suggests that Mnangagwa should not be stopped because he is already in the 18-yard box and close to scoring. This is what Zimbabwe’s constitutional debate has been reduced to. Instead of discussing the long-term implications of altering the Constitution, strengthening democratic institutions, and protecting the principle of term limits, Parliament is being treated to football analogies designed to justify extending the tenure of a sitting president. Whether one supports or opposes Constitutional Amendment Bill No. 3, Zimbabweans should expect a higher standard of debate from lawmakers entrusted with shaping the country’s constitutional future.
