40 CCC MPs Endorse CAB3 at Harare Caucus Meeting.
In a development many are describing as a sign of growing political maturity in Zimbabwe, around 40 CCC MPs yesterday reportedly held a caucus meeting at Holiday Inn Harare where they unanimously endorsed Constitutional Amendment Bill No. 3 (CAB3). The meeting was chaired by lawyer and Hatcliffe Constituency MP, Hon. Agency Gumbo.
According to reports, the legislators vowed to support the Bill in Parliament, describing CAB3 as an important legislative and governance framework that strengthens democracy, stability and institutional development in Zimbabwe.
The development signals a shift towards issue-based politics where national interests are increasingly taking precedence over partisan divisions. Political observers say the willingness by opposition MPs to support a Government-backed constitutional process demonstrates democratic maturity and constructive engagement within Zimbabwe’s political landscape.
CAB3 an “important legislative and governance framework that strengthens democracy, stability and institutional development in Zimbabwe,” these opposition MPs are just saying exactly what Mnangagwa would want them to say! All the pretences that MDC/CCC leaders are fighting for democratic changes to dismantle the Zanu pF dictatorship have all gone.
“Mazivanhu eMDC adzidza kudya anyerere!” (MDC leaders have learned to enjoy the gravy train good-life; they will never rock the boat!” boasted Zanu PF cronies during the 2008 to 2013 GNU when they were asked why MDC leaders were not implementing the democratic reforms! Many people did not want to believe the opposition had sold out even when they could not name even one token reform implemented during the GNU.
The MDC leaders participated in the flawed 2013 elections ignoring SADC leaders’ June 2013 Summit warning them not to do so until reforms were implemented. MDC leaders like Tendai Biti and David Coltart acknowledged it was foolish participating in flawed 2013 elections and yet they still participated out of greed as Coltart admitted.
“The worst aspect for me about the failure to agree a coalition was that both MDCs couldn’t now do the obvious - withdraw from the (2013) elections. The electoral process was so flawed, so illegal, that the only logical step was to withdraw, which would compel SADC to hold Zanu PF to account. But such was the distrust between the MDC-T and MDC-N that neither could withdraw for fear that the other would remain in the elections, winning seats and giving the process credibility,” confessed David Coltart in his Book, The Struggle Continues 50 years of Tyranny in Zimbabwe.
MDC/CCC leaders have participated in flawed and illegal elections ever since the GNU debacle for the same reasons - greed and breathtaking incompetence.
Still many Zimbabweans have refused to accept the the MDC/CCC leaders were no longer fighting for democratic changes and continues to follow them blindly. Leaders like Chamisa conned them to participate in flawed elections on the basis of idiotic lies of the opposition winning the elections because he plugged all the vote rigging loop holes.
As soon as the election results come out, Chamisa & co. have complained that Zanu PF rigged the elections - the very thing the people were promised would not happen. The big surprise is that millions were conned again and again to participate on the basis of yet another idiotic lie!
Chamisa acknowledges SADC and AU condemnation of Zimbabwe's 2023 elections as flawed and illegal but will not accept that his insistence on participating in the flawed process has consequences! He wants to keep his cake and eat it too and has the childish impudence to cry and blame it on SADC for failing to punish Zanu PF for the rigged elections. What an idiot!
As much as SADC and AU election observers condemned 2023 elections as flawed and illegal they could not deny Zanu PF legitimacy because millions of Zimbabweans were conned to participated in the flawed elections. They believed the opposition would win the rigged elections. Who told them that? You! Chamisa!
The idea that participating in flawed elections against repeated advice does not have no consequences is idiotic, to say the least. As much as both SADC and AU election observers condemned the 2023 election process as flawed and illegal they would not deny Zanu PF legitimacy because millions of Zimbabweans participated regardless. That the millions were conned is not SADC and AU is doing!
CAB3 is consolidating the Zanu PF dictatorial powers, the powers MDC/CCC leaders were elected to dismantle these last 26 years and have failed to do so. And now these leaders have the audacity to support CAB3 and tell us this will strengthen democracy! The tragedy for Zimbabwe is that many will believe and still continue to follow these MDC/CCC sell-outs!
Zimbabwe is a failed state. It is tempting to blame Zanu PF thugs and their surrogate MDC/CCC sell-out for dragging the nation into this mess. But after 46 years of the nation being dragged deeper and deeper into this hell-on-earth we have to ask why has Zimbabweans themselves allowed this nightmare to continue? After all it is the ordinary Zimbabweans themselves who are at the coal face of the tragic human suffering and deaths, the consequences of the failed state!
Like it or not Zanu PF cronies were right “Mazivanhu eMDC/CCC akadzidza kare kudya anyerere!” many Zimbabweans have refused to acknowledge this at the nation’s peril. MDC/CCC will never ever deliver change no more than Zanu PF thugs reforming themselves out of power.
So if Zimbabweans are serious about democratic change and finally ending the double curse of rigged elections and failed state, ordinary Zimbabweans must accept the reality that Zanu PF nor MDC/CCC will ever deliver the change. They must look somewhere else for that change!
Zimbabwe is NOT a healthy and functioning democracy, never was. Zanu PF has usurped the people’s freedoms and rights to create a de facto one party dictatorship. If Zimbabweans want to end the dictatorship and replace it with a democratic system of government then they must fight Zanu PF and its surrogate MDC/CCC sell-outs who are now Zanu PF team B in all but name - fighting for team A to win and to have legitimacy.

Thank you my brother. We have been brainwashed into believing we are helpless victims and have played along. You are telling us what we must hear and not what we want to hear - there is a difference!

YESTERDAY SOCIAL MEDIA WAS AWASH WITH REPORTS THAT CCC MP AGENCY GUMBO AND OTHERS "vowed to support the Bill in Parliament, describing CAB3 as an important legislative and governance framework that strengthens democracy, stability and institutional development in Zimbabwe."
TODAY MP GUMBO IS DISMISSING THE REPORT AS FAKE NEWS. HE IS VOWING TO RESIST CAB3! TO WHAT END AND PURPOSE?
GUMBO, CHAMISA, COLTART, MAHERE AND THE REST ON CCC LEADERS PARTICIPATED IN FLAWED 2023 ELECTIONS KNOWING THE PROCESS WAS FLAWED AND THAT PARTICIPATING WOULD GIVE ZANU PF LEGITIMACY. THE DAMAGE WAS DONE IN PARTICIPATING WHAT HAS FOLLOWED INCLUDING CAB3 IS THE CONSEQUENCES.
GUMBO & Co. ARE TAKING US FOR FOOLS BY PRETENDING THEY DID NOT KNOW THEY WERE GIVING ZANU PF LEGITIMACY MUCH LESS THEY CAN STOP THE CONSEQUENCES OF DICTATORSHIP! THE ZANU PF DICTATORSHIP AND THE CONSEQUENCES OF IT ARE NOT FAKE NEWS!

"Dr. Kudakwashe Tagwirei and his wife Amai Sandra gifted their newlywed children Taonanyasha John Tagwirei and Poneso Tinomuda Janda US$2.5 million and 33 hectares of prime Umwinsidale land worth US$15 million." Impressive. Very impressive!
What I would like to see is Dr Tagwirei, tax return; giving details of the source of his wealth and that he paid his dues to the taxman!
Zimbabwe is a failed nation in which millions now live in abject poverty because of the heavy burden of direct and indirect tax and because nation's bounty which should benefit all are looted by a few. The injustice of the filthy rich few living in luxury at the expense of the millions lining in abject poverty must be addressed or we lose our own humanity!

Zanu PF has denied the millions of povo in the rural areas title deeds to even one acre of land for the same selfish political reason Ian Smith denied them. Smith understood giving the rural povo title deeds would economical empower them and give them the power and confidence to build decent homes for themselves.
And yet, he refused to grant them title deeds because he feared the rural povo would demand political empowerment next. He was not prepared to grant the blacks a meaningful say in the governance of Rhodesia.
Mugabe and his Zanu PF cronies have denied povo title deeds for the same selfish reason. In their iron clad resolve to retain power at all cost, Zanu PF thugs are now extend their political reach to the urban dwellers in their leafy town and city suburbs! From July 2027 all title deeds must have digital registration, giving Zanu PF a say - same political control as with povo!

NONSENSE! Of course, Chiwenga is fighting for power. He believes Zanu PF has the divine right to rule Zimbabwe and it is now his turn to be president. The anti-corruption stance is a convenient flag to rally the naive and gullible behind him. He used the same flag in 2017 and yet corruption since has not stopped - if anything it has gone into overdrive.
You have no learned that Chiwenga is just another corrupt, incompetent, a murderous a vote rigging Zanu PF thugs who believe that he has the divine right to rule Zimbabwe. He would stage yet another military coup if he can. That is the only legacy he cares about!
Zimbabwe is a failed state precisely because the nation has been stuck with this corrupt, incompetent and tyrannical Zanu PF dictatorship complete with its equally corrupt and useless MDC/CCC sell outs. But what would a buffoon like Chiwenga know about that much less the brain-dead sycophant supporters!
A little learning is a dangerous thing" as Alexander Pope put it. Or as the Shona adage would say "Kusadzidza eshavi renhamo!"

"Team Chiwenga is not power-hungry. That’s why they handed power to President Mnangagwa in 2017. They removed Mugabe to restore our legacy." Only a village idiot who has learned nothing frop the past can say that!
Zimbabwe is a failed state because we have millions of brain-dead sycophants who believe leaders are demigods who do no wrong. They have learned nothing from the mountain of evidence proving the leaders are corrupt, incompetent and vote rigging murderers (in case of Zanu PF) and sell outs (in case of MDC/CCC) And, to crown it all, the sycophants have a voice and a vote.

Zimbabwe is a failed state, a pariah state ruled by the Mafia thugs who have looted the nation's wealth to destruction. 49% of our people are living in abject poverty, they are the victims of the Mafia thugs' misrule.
It is an outrage that Jacob Mafume, Mayor of Harare, should be driving street vendor because they are a "threat to public health". The real threat to the nation are Mafia thugs like Mafume himself who are looting the nation blind. And he has cheek of treating his victims as if they were the scum of the earth and not him!!

America and its ally, Israel, won the battle, "Operation Epic Fury" but now it is clear they lost the war. They hit Iran very hard and expected a quick and decisive victory. Iran took its time to respond - it closed the Strait of Hormuz and unexpected move and worst of all one USA and Israel have failed to counter! Worst of all Iran has time and many, many option to escalation the war - trump card. USA and Israel are as keen as mustard to conclude this war and yet are helpless to do anything to end it.
Mnangagwa will be celebrating his victory with the signing of CAB3 into law. The clock will start ticking on him to deliver on vision 2030, turning Zimbabwe's current GPD per capita of UD$2k to US$6k. In many ways Mnangagwa will be in the same boat USA and Israel are in right now. Mnangagwa has won the CAB3 battle but lost Vision 2030 war - he will never deliver economic prosperity. NEVER! By the end of this year many people will know he lied to them and that number will grow with each passing day!

Tugwarara gave his daughter a Borrowdale mansion, 18th birth day present. She has lost count of how many mansions she has now! This, in a country where 49% of our people are FORCED to live in mud huts because they are denied title deeds to even a few square metres of land.
As far as the overwhelming majority of blacks were concerned the fight to end white colonial oppression and exploitation was first and foremost to end the outrageous political reality that the white could OWN land and yet the blacks were denied title deeds to even a few square metres. The whites feared that economically empowered blacks would demand political empowerment next. What is infuriating is the Zanu PF thugs have denied the ordinary Zimbabweans title deeds to land for the same selfish political reason as the white!
Corruption cannot be addressed as long as Zanu PF continues to hold millions of our people hostage by denying them the right to own land and political empowerment.
RURAL PEOPLE MUST BE GRANTED TITLE DEEDS TO THE FEW ACRES OF LAND ON WHICH THEIR MUD HUTS STAND - THIS IS NOT NEGOTIABLE! ZIMBABWE'S INDEPENDENCE AND SOVEREIGNTY WILL REMAIN A MEANINGLESS VOID AS LONG AS THIS ABOMINATION IS ALLOWED TO CONTINUE!
@ General Tsati
"Sometimes I tend to agree with Nelson Chamisa's line of thinking! Don't fight Cab3 because it is a foregone thing. Facts, events andthe route all work in favour of Zanu Pf. 2/3 was secured. The opposition was tempered with and compromised. The Highway road for cab3 to law is well benchmarked and signposted that only fools will get lost.
Chamisa saw this and declared that it was just a waste of resources to fight Cab3. I agree with him 💯. Ane muono.
Cab3 to real opposition is just a sideshow...if the matrix of bringing was in place Cab3 wouldn't be a threat at all! Let them pass whatever law they wish ... tomorrow Change being certain as it is, we will remove whatever inscriptions they did put on the Constitution."
What you have failed to grasp is the reality that it was MDC/CCC leaders’ failure to implement the reforms and insistence on participating in flawed elections out of greed that got us into this mess!
Gladys
You still failing to understand that MDC/CCC leaders would have ended the Zanu PF dictatorship if they had not sold out! I understand that you cannot understand such complex issues, you do not have the intellectual capacity.
History remembers nations not only by the battles they fought but by how they transformed victory into prosperity and sacrifice into sustainable progress. Zimbabwe’s Land Reform Programme was not an ordinary policy exercise, it was a defining chapter of national correction, dignity and empowerment. Hondo yeMinda born from the deep conviction that land, identity and sovereignty are inseparable. Yet every revolution carries within it a higher calling, not merely to recover what was lost but to secure its future value for generations u…
The tragedy for Zimbabwe is that millions of ordinary Zimbabweans in the rural areas continue to be denied the right to own even a few square metres of land. The land policies introduced by the whites have remained 46 years after independence and for the same selfish political reasons!

Zimbabwe is a failed state, a state ruled and controlled by Mafia thugs, if there was any doubt of that a leaked audio of Kuda Tagwirei boasting about his and influence removes all such doubt. How did we get into this mess? And how the hell are we ever going to get out, because the Mafia thugs have so much economic power?
@ Earthmanzhou
Chamisa lied and conned millions to participate in flawed elections to give Zanu PF legitimacy and perpetuate the dictatorship. There are Chamisa chete chete morons who do not want to hear the truth. The truth will be hammered into their empty heads!
Why are Zimbabwe’s tenderpreneurs drunk with wealth unlike other billionaires?
BY Tendai Ruben Mbofana
A FOOL and his money are soon parted.
The weekend reports detailing the jaw-dropping 20 million dollars in cash, prime land, and luxury gifts showered on Kudakwashe Tagwirei’s son, Taonanyasha, by the who’s who of Zimbabwe’s political patronage left a collective sense of shock and deep revulsion across Zimbabwe.
Looting is Zimbabwe has gone into overdrive and the looters are now so powerful they are using their ill gotten wealth to control all state institutions and to bribe people to do their dirty bidding. It is now near impossible to bring about any meaningful political change in Zimbabwe.
@ Ten ten
"I don't think title deeds in the rural areas is a good idea.If all land is owned by individuals with title deeds it means they have power to sell the land to the highest bidder.Ask yourself will there be land left for future generations."
Why would anyone want to buy a few acres . Those who own a few hectares have title deeds and are the ones who are selling off the land. Why are you not objecting to those with A1,A2 and even bigger farms getting title deeds!
@ SULULU
"The time has come for us, the people of Zimbabwe, to awaken and relentlessly challenge this oppressive regime. Day and night, our fundamental rights are stripped away in broad daylight, plunging our nation ever deeper into poverty. No to CAB3."
CAB3 IS A DONE DEAL THE FIGHT NOW IS TO MAKE SURE RURAL PEOPLE ARE GRANTED TITLE DEEDS AND FREE THEM FROM ZANU PF’S CONTROL!
@ Isaac Makomichi
Chiwenga is corrupt, incompetent and a thug. He is against CAB3 because it is stopping him taking over as president. No amount of Channel 5 can hide the skunk’s smell.
Mnangagwa and Chiwenga orchestrated 2008 Operation Mavhotera Papi punishing the people for rejecting Zanu PF and promoting “Zanu PF ichatonga kusvika madhongi anera nyanga!” mantra. Only an idiot would want to swap one thug for another and repeat the folly of 2017!
@ Mary
Zimbabwe has been stuck with this corrupt, incompetent and tyrannical regime because millions of our people have a personality cult mentality. They view leaders as demigods who can do no wrong, they refuse to accept the truth even when they are presented with a mountain of evidence.
It is nauseating that any one would deny that Chiwenga is corrupt, incompetent and a murderous psychopath. And yet here we are, we have morons like Isaac Makomichi who day in and day out praise Chiwenga to the high heavens.
No wonder we are a failed state and, at this rate, doomed to remain a failed state. A nation that cannot even deal with simple truth is a doomed nation! The real world is, like it or not, complex; those who cannot handle simple truth are like some one who has failed to master the alphabet - they cannot read in a world in which survival depends on the ability to read!

The economic gap between the filthy rich few ruling elite and their cronies and the filthy poor overwhelming majority in Zimbabwe is becoming an unbridgeable chasm. How did we get here?
Answer: Zanu PF made the rural areas its political strongholds from the word go giving the party an inbuilt 60% of the votes. It has maintained its struggle hold on the rural people using violence and by keeping them poor and dependent on the regime.
The regime has been rattled by the urban voters' increasing demands to end corruption and build a more just and equal society. The party is moving into the urban areas to silence dissent. Zanu PF Harare Province is planning to recruit 600 000 new members by end of next month. One way to do it will be for the party to make it near impossible for none members to get the "Securitised Title Deeds"! The Zanu PF noose is tightening on urban dwellers!

"After the President, I am the most powerful person in government although I am outside government," boasted Kudakwashe Tagwirei on the eve of his son's lavish wedding. It was not grand standing! Almost all the government ministers and leading socialites attended the wedding and their generous presents were meant to impress Tagwirei. The newly weds got over US$20 millions in cash plus other gifts such as land, posh cars other goodies.
Zimbabwe is failed state in which the few filthy rich ruling elite and their cronies live in unparalleled luxury whilst the overwhelming majority are living in abject poverty. We have moved from a pariah state ruled by thugs in power because they rigged elections and now with the passing of CAB3 we diluting the people's right to a meaningful vote to nothing. And the thugs themselves are nothing but puppets and unelected Mafia gangsters are pulling the strings!
