What we know we shall communicate. Do you know that ZANU PF’s 2030 agenda is just one among many constitutional amendments that ZANU PF wants to bring to Parliament? The bill they are working on is an omnibus bill (carrying multiple amendments). One other amendment proposed is to have Voter Registration back to the Registrar General’s Office (Tobaiwa Mudede style). The other is formalizing Political Parties through registration dynamics in a manner akin to the PVO Act. All these are issues for which citizens must be engaged through the @DCPlatform25. I am not asking anyone to vote for me, I am asking someone to not ignore these critical national conversations.

Matthew Takaona, an opposition Parliamentary candidate in the 2023 harmonised elections has donated a bed, US$120, kitchen utensils to Marshal Innocent Manhivi of Jaravaza Village under Chief Nyamandi in Gutu and his wife who lost a child (one-year-six-months old) and all property in an inferno that gutted down their house. Speaking at a prayer meeting to console the family, Takaona said it is shocking that there is no Government Official or Department that set foot on the homestead to find ways of assisting the family after it lost everything in December last year. He said the existence of NSSA, Social Welfare Department and Civil Protection Unit is theoretical if these organisations cannot intervene in such disasters. He also bemoaned incapacitation of the Police after cops arrived at the scene 11 hours later because they had no vehicle. Other donations to the Manhivi family were received from Senator Maggie Chakabuda and Honourable Tendeukai Matara. Ward co-ordinators from Gutu Central donated US$60, food stuffs plus clothes. @socialwelfareAN @MoHCCZim @childline @ShamwariyeMwana @edmnangagwa @Jamwanda2 @FreeMediaWorld @MoJLPA @lawsocietyofzim @MUSASAZIM @GenderZimbabwe @WCOZIMBABWE @unwomenzw @mwacsmed @wlsazw @ZimWomenLawyers @daddyhope @Shadaya_Knight @zimcelebs1 @UN_Women @ZPCS_PR @fojo_int @ParliamentZim @JSCZim @lawsocietyofzim @Moha_Zim @InfoMinZW @HumanRihts @zhrc365 @ZimHRNGOForum @zmyonec @UNHumanRights @EURightsAgency @ZLHRLawyers @Moha_Zim @InfoMinZW @MoPSEZim @MoPSEZim @AppleEDU @ProfJNMoyo @amutambara @DrDNdhlukula @ecozim
