After confirming with @DMwonzora the earlier post which contained an application challenging the signing of CAB3 into law without ED referring the bill to a referendum, I can authoritatively say that the document doing the rounds contains an error which was rectified before the actual filing was done. The document makes reference to a response being launched in the High Court within 10 days and yet it was supposed to say the Constitutional Court. Attached is the actual application that was filed @Va_Gotora

ZRP BARRICADES MDC HEADQUARTERS AHEAD OF NATIONAL E-RALLY (Harare)
Saturday, 4 July 2026 | 10:28 AM | Morgan Richard Tsvangirai House, 44 Nelson Mandela Avenue
Zimbabwe Republic Police have barricaded the MDC National Headquarters, the venue for today’s lawful e-rally beginning at 12:00 PM. Officers deployed trucks and dogs around 8:00 AM, denying entry to party members, staff, and citizens. Four senior officials were arrested, including Hon Benevolence Taisekwa and Mr Chengetai Guta, with others also named.
MDC condemns the move as a violation of constitutional rights to assembly, expression, and peaceful political participation. Despite the barricade, the e-rally will proceed online as scheduled, and the MDC’s legal team will pursue urgent action.

It turns out that it was not editorial fiction, my brother. Nelson Chamisa did actually give the interview to the Daily News, which recorded it. After I and many others challenged the Daily News, it has now released part of the recording and says it will soon upload the full interview.
Ironically, the Daily News actually published only the milder comments from him in the original story. It now turns out that he went much further and directly attacked people by name. In this audio, you can hear him criticising Jameson Timba for leading people against Constitutional Amendment Bill Number 3.
This is why transparency matters in both journalism and politics. When there is a dispute over what was said, evidence must speak for itself.
Now the serious question that anybody opposed to the violation of the Constitution is asking is this: why is Nelson Chamisa attacking people who are fighting against Constitutional Amendment Bill Number 3?
And why did he go onto his timeline two days ago and claim that the Daily News story was fiction and that he never said those things, when the audio now shows that he actually said far more than what was originally published?
The emerging evidence now raises serious credibility and political questions. If he disagreed with those opposing Constitutional Amendment Bill Number 3, he had every right to say so openly. But denying the interview entirely, only for recorded audio to emerge later, is what is now deepening public concern and confusion.
In politics, credibility matters. Once leaders begin denying things that are later proven to be true, people naturally begin questioning what else they may not be telling the public honestly.
Replying to @daddyhope
He said it's editorial fiction and also castigated manufacturing of stories. I think in this case he did justice, but only that he didn't use the words we were looking for...Like pa CAB#3 anotaura ka one isu tichida everyday.

The Zimbabwe Catholic Bishops Council has trashed Constitutional Amendment Bill Number 3 in its entirety and appealed to MPs to reject it when they vote on its adoption. The Catholic Church which is by far the biggest in Zimbabwe reminded MPs through its submissions to the August House of May 12, 2026 that the Constitution is not a mere legal instrument but a national covenant born out of the blood of the liberation struggle and the 2013 national referendum and cannot be desecrated willy-nilly at the whims of individuals. The hallmark of the intended amendments, the Bishops lamented is to weaken democracy, respect for human dignity, justice, accountability, confidence in public institutions. They also noted with grave concern that the amendments are intended to concentrate power in the hands of a few by weakening the pillars of the State; Parliament, Judiciary.

First Question from @MacBelts to President of MDC
@MacBelts @TitusTaffy @DMwonzora @zimbabweyauya @Marcie4LOC
“We’re hearing reports that demonstrations are being restricted or blocked.
Can you walk us through what’s actually happening on the ground?
And how are these restrictions affecting your ability to mobilise people around this issue?
Are you able to hear us clearly? Voice of Host 🎤🎙️
President of MDC SD Mwonzora replies:
We are not going to sit back and allow such a critical process to be reduced to a show of hands in Parliament.
This matter requires a secret ballot — anything less compromises accountability and democratic integrity.
We are prepared to challenge this in court if necessary.
Let’s be clear about what is at stake:
If the vote is confined to Members of Parliament:
- In places like Epworth, only a handful of individuals decide for hundreds of thousands
- In Harare, just a few dozen decide for millions
- Nationally, around 350 people would effectively determine leadership for over 16 million citizens
That is not democracy — that is disenfranchisement.
There are also worrying reports suggesting that some opposition figures support this amendment.
If these claims are inaccurate, they must be corrected urgently.
Silence will be interpreted as endorsement.
Amendment No. 3 does not serve the people.
It weakens democratic participation and undermines citizens’ rights.
This must be challenged — legally, politically, and publicly.

PART TWO 2️⃣ Powerful speech 🎤 🎯🔥🔥🔥from @DMwonzora Hosted by @MacBelts & @TitusTaffy :
THREAD: The core issue with Amendment Bill No. 3 (COP3) 🧵
1. Let’s simplify this.
At its core, COP3 is about one thing:
👉 Taking away the people’s right to vote for President.
2. Zimbabwe’s Constitution is built on:
👉 Universal adult suffrage
Meaning: every citizen 18+ has the right to vote.
3. COP3 changes that.
Instead of millions voting:
👉 A small group (Members of Parliament) would decide.
4. What does that mean in real terms?
- Millions of citizens → NO direct vote
- Power concentrated in → a few hundred individuals
👉 That is disenfranchisement.
5. It doesn’t stop there.
People are also being denied a referendum:
👉 No chance to vote on whether they accept this change or not.
6. So two rights are affected:
- ❌ Right to choose the President
- ❌ Right to approve constitutional changes
7. This goes against a core principle of Zimbabwe’s history:
👉 “One person, one vote” — a key foundation of the liberation struggle.
8. Another major concern:
The President would gain more control over:
- Voter registration processes
- Electoral structures
👉 This raises serious questions about free and fair elections.
9. So the core message is simple:
This is not a technical amendment.
👉 It is a shift of power away from the people.
10. Final point:
If citizens lose the ability to choose leadership directly,
👉 democracy itself is weakened.
