1. Here’s what you need to know before you demand a President or a Presidential candidate to amend a law(s) upon assumption of power.
2. Although he’s part of the Legislature, his role in the law making process is attenuated. The President assents to Bills passed by Parliament before they become law (enacts Bills into law-Acts).
3. The President only legislates under exceptional circumstances ie thru e Presidential Powers (Temporary Measures) Act. The regulations made in terms of e PPTMA are temporary ie valid for 6 months, shouldn’t be ultra vires e parent Act & the situation in respect of which they’re

1/OUR NEW GREAT ZIMBABWE ENERGY PLAN
Zimbabwe currently has a national electrification rate of 42%. While electricity has reached 83% of the urban households, rural electrification is still around 13% as per the National Energy Policy of 2012 (as per last updated stats)
Zimbabwe currently has a national electrification rate of 42%. While electricity has reached 83% of the urban households, rural electrification is still around 13% as per the National Energy Policy of 2012 (as per last updated stats)
2/Our estimated electricity demand is 2300 MW against actual generation of below 1100 MW. The current output of 1100 MW is not sufficient to guarantee support for a rapid economic growth programme.
3/The supplies are fraught with persistent outages. In addition, there are significant electricity losses as a consequence of aged and inefficient transmission and distribution networks.

Social media has been awash with this video where Limpopo Health Member of the Executive Council (MEC) Dr Phophi Ramathuba confronts a Zimbabwean immigrant waiting for a medical procedure in a SAn hospital.
The video is extremely painful to watch.

The video is extremely painful to watch.
2] At face value, it's extremely unethical for Dr Phophi, a health practitioner to confront & humiliate a patient, as she is otherwise duty bound to attend to the health needs of patients.
It certainly brings into question, her professional conduct as a medical practitioner.

3] However, besides being a professional doctor, the MEC is also a political figurehead of the ANC, performing administrative duties in the Province.
In fact, she rationalizes her conduct in a way that certainly will find resonance with those governing & funding SAn institutions

Fellow citizens, as we edge towards 2023, propaganda & threats such as this, will most certainly become the order of the day.
Through this statement, Mr Chinamasa has invited us into reading ZanuPF's thoughts.

Hopefully, citizens who were innocently joining this bandwagon can properly realize that there's indeed a desperate attempt by the regime to push CCC along a road full of set traps.

1/12 The recent MID TERM BUDGET review confirms that Zimbabwe is in a serious leadership crisis and citizens are exposed to extreme poverty and suffering. I say this for the following reasons:
2/12 At a time where inflation has reached 257% in July and people in extreme poverty are 7.9 million (49%), the budget disbursements to social is extremely low, e.g., ministry health has been given 27% of the budget by June instead of a min of 50%.
3/12 When the consumer basket for a family of 5 has topped ZWL$140K, government raises salary of the lowest paid civil servants to $35K (excluding the US$175) and raise the tax free threshold to $50K, both of which are far below the consumer basket & poverty datum line;

The late king of a certain community had ten wild dogs. He used them to torture and eat any of his servants who made a mistake. One of the servants gave an opinion that was wrong, and the king didn’t like it at all. So he ordered that the servant be thrown to the dogs.
The servant said, “I served you for ten years, and you do this to me? Please give me ten days before throwing me to those dogs!” The king agreed.
In those ten days, the servant went to the guard who looks after the dogs and told him he would like to serve the dogs for the next ten days.
1] Fellow citizen, i'll do something a bit out of character, and publicly address Adv Nelson Chamisa & @CCCZimbabwe.
Adv Chamisa needs to urgently provide decisive political leadership & galvanize citizens in rejecting the nonsensical appointment of those ZEC Commissioners by ED

2] It can't be business as usual, when Mr EDM, a political competitor, appoints the daughter of his deputy, as an electoral referee.
Already, ZEC's Spokesperson, is Jaspet Mangwana, relative to Mnangagwa's Sec for Legal Affairs & Propagandist, Paul & Nick Mangwana respectively

1. I once tried a layers hens project with 50 hens. Good project but it needs large scale to be worthwhile. But today I want to talk about the violence of these hens. They are very rerritorial and if you place a hen in a wrong cage it will suffer. Spare a thot for @JobSikhala1
2. After nursing them in separate cages, a time came to put them in the main run. Kingpins from different cages wrestled to be the roaster of the roost. It was gruesome. I would sometimes be awoken by riotings & forced to intervene. I lost 2 birds to these brawls! @stantetwas
3. I tried several approaches to break up these horrific fights. I demarcated the run, tagged the main offenders, segregated the main victims 😤 & in the end resorted to culling off; first the aggressors, new aggressors arose. Culled victims- new came. @PoliceZimbabwe
8. We believe that beyond the nice pictures, these events are a smokescreen and a mirage all meant to project a picture of a peaceful ZanuPf and gloss over hundreds of human rights abuses currently taking place right now.
9 @CCCZimbabwe youth leaders need to be careful, lest they be used to whitewash the bloodstained hands of the regime. Everyone ignored the illegal threats issued by chiefs all over the country last week and the arrest of CCC members in Manicaland. See. Pictures worked.
10. With the PVO Bill coming, the regime will shut down civic space and use these as proof that they never did. Let democrats not be a part of this. Maoko pa gejo!!!

1] When will CCC hold its inaugural Congress?
A thread....
Have noticed growing sentiments, around the inaugural Citizens Congress, both from well meaning citizens, as well as the regime counterintelligence structures.
I've decided to share some random views on the matter.

2] A few weeks ago, I wrote a (long) article, on how @nelsonchamisa's opponents had failed to understand his #plan
I equally argued that Zimbabwe isn't a normal democracy & thus CCC wouldn't survive for long, if it's leaders behaved & acted as if we were

3] Yes, in a normal democracy, it would be ideal for CCC to go for Congress & participate in the 2023 elections with a leadership without a legitimacy question over their party positions.
However, it's important to query why ZanuPF is very vocal over the CCC Congress concern.

1/5 AFTER THE FRENZY OF @HHichilema's WIN IN ZAMBIA, is the Zim Opposition, waiting for the next African election to be won by the opposition; to get excited again about voter registration for 2023? Where are the #RegisterToVoteZW, #RegisterToVote2023 and #YouthVote2023 hashtags?
2/5 The palpable lethargy about mobilizing citizens for voter registration is concerning; since @ZECzim is now in full swing with the DELIMITATION process & is planning a VOTER REGISTRATION BLITZ in December. By now one would have expected voter mobilization to be at fever pitch!
1] Some bit of context to this....
First challenge is that some of us have always been opposed to the rule of ZanuPF, while some of them are opposed to the rule of Mnangagwa.
The fear is that, we may he pursing different types of "change"!

They want to exonerate their association with ZanuPF misrule for all their adult life by reminding us that "MDC supported the coup" in 2017.
In doing so, they expose their hidden anger, towards citizens & the MDC, for "aiding their fall from grace."

Citizens wanted the albatross, RG gone, by means necessary or unnecessary.
Ironically, they wont admit to have played different roles in ensuring that there wouldnt be a change of government through the ballot in Zimbabwe.

1. This man reminds me of Unoka in Achebe’s Things Fall Apart. His son Okonkwo was embarrassed by him. He was perennially in debt & didn’t care. He was lazy and constantly borrowing from friends and neighbours. He didn’t pay back. Always looking for favours.
2. One day a creditor came to collect his debt. Unoka dismissed him. “Look at that wall," Unoka said pointing to the wall of his hut. "Look at those lines of chalk". Okoye, the creditor saw groups of lines drawn in chalk.
3. Unoka took some snuff & sneezed dramatically & said, “Each group there represents a debt to someone and each stroke is one hundred cowries. You see, I owe that man a thousand cowries. But he has not come to wake me up in the morning for it. I shall pay you, but not today”
1] Was looking forward to seeing a tweet like that one tagged below.
Will 'ZanuPF people' ever own up to their actions?
Suddenly ED's spin doctors, Nick Mangwana and Charamba must he treated as "victims" after being exposed for their senseless lies and vitriol respectively.

2] So it's okay for ED's spokesperson to insult HH using vernacular & a ghost account?
Translating & exposing this to HH and/or his officials is "gaslighting"?
You can't have your cake and eat it too.
I'm sure ZanuPF will soon criminalize this, using their proposed cyber laws

3] Again, noone provoked whoever wrote that embarrassing lie, of a whole President running around hotels looking for Mnangagwa!
It's just propaganda gone horribly wrong.
Noone should feel sad for Nick Mangwana now that the lies he shared are being exposed.

The greatest weapon used to colonize Africa was never the Maxim gun, but religion.We have people who go buy a working factory, convert it into a church and start praying for jobs. Religion pacified people and even made some of us lazy, always waiting for someone else to save us
There is a reason why 95% of the world's poorest countries are the most religious. Religion is a tool made for controlling people. They will drill it into you that ,"blessed are the poor" , or "the rich young ruler struggled in hell and the poor Lazarus was partying in heaven"
For me, this creates a situation whereby people are content with being poor, they don't wanna even change their status quo and they are much worried about the "world to come" instead of the world they live NOW. Very few religious people want to be rich because being rich has

• State media remains ZanuPF media?
•newly licensed stations are linked to Zanu aligned institutions & individuals?
• Journalists are harassed & others are always getting arrested?

When some of us tweeted against Mwonzora from 2018/19, (before it became fashionable), the accusation was that "we had picked Chamisa's faction"
It was particularly strange because "we" had no known political footprints then, in the MDC affairs.

2] It was thus strange, to be treated as supporters of one faction against the other.
Some preferred characterising the Khupe/Mwonzora-Chamisa battles as mere Tsvangirai succession, even when signs became evident, that ZanuPF had developed an interest and indeed taken over.

3] The tragedy in Zimbabwe, is that the constitution is treated as merely a political document.
It's owned & handed over to the winner of the next election, after every 5 years.
If the constitution was a baby, then in 2008 & 2013, ZanuPF had the discomfort of co-parenting.

2] MDC-T has no incentive 4 opposing ZanuPF,its political blood drip.
If anything, they have many reasons to do the exact opposite.
And yes, this is "rational disputation" in motion.
Clearly, some concessions were made.
One hope what they'll get in return is worth our democracy

•A satisfied ED won't use state apparatus to descend on the "mature lot"
