"Many don't understand that CCC project is a people's project & that God is in it. It has a God element because we didn't just wake up with it. There's a reason why we had to be moved from the Egypt of our politics (MDC), into the Cannan of new politics,(CCC)"

"CCC was a product of a lot of inspiration, revelation & consultation. We spent the last quarter of 2021 consulting different stakeholders, churches; traditional leaders; trade union leaders; youth & women groups; business; & various other organized groups."

"Citizens must be at the center in decision making; policy making, budgeting; in elections; in forming & constituting government; in making & unmaking leaders; in delivering services. It's a philosophy that puts the citizen & not the politician at the center."

"Anything new is bound to be resisted, to be fought. Taking people out of Egypt is easier than taking Egypt out of people. Egypt still lingers in people's minds & thoughts, but we need a process of transformation of the minds & heart, to have new politics."

"All our rallies have been fantastic, whether in rural or urban areas, yet this was just a by-election launch. We are yet to launch the citizen’s movement, we've only introduced it. The launch is yet to come. We are preparing for it and it will be very soon."

"We did very well in the by-elections. For a party formed in Jan to hit close to 80% was huge. Its an impressive record which had never happened. They thought they had buried us, little did they know, they had planted us. We've germinated, we're flourishing"
