*"As Zimbabweans, It Is High Time We Stand Up" - Kufahakutizwi* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?yz Munyaradzi Kufahakutizwi who was elected Member of Parliament for Mabvuku-Tafara Constituency in the 2 August 2023 harmonised elections believes that it is time for Zimbabweans to stand up and defend themselves against ZANU PF’s disregard for the constitution. He was commenting on the High Court order which barred him from contesting in the Mabvuku-Tafara constituency by-election to fill the vacant post which became vacant when he was recalled from Parliament by Sengezo Tshabangu. ---------- Latest itel S24 available on Pindula: 128GB storage, 4GB RAM $119 USD WhatsApp: +263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 Buy Online: https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-s24-128gb-22-20240426142756795795/?s=wanews ---------- Speaking during an interview with NewZimbabwe, Kufahatizwi who was the Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) candidate expressed concern that ZANU PF was pushing Zimbabwe towards a one-party state. He said: > They are squeezing us to the bone and pushing us towards a One-Party State. > We believe that they did this to attain a two-thirds majority so they amend the constitution and allow President Emmerson Mnangagwa to be a life president. > As Zimbabweans, it is high time we stand up because we cannot continue being ruled by this heartless government. People are really angry. > They took away the life of an innocent pastor who was campaigning; if they had known that they would just take the seat they should have spared his life because now they have destroyed his family’s future. He was referring to the murder of Tapfumaneyi Masaya, a clergyman and activist for the opposition Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) party, who was allegedly abducted and later found dead in Harare. The CCC claims that Masaya suffered severe injuries and his body had decomposed due to the injection of a harmful substance. Masaya was abducted while campaigning for Kufahakutizwi who had been recalled by Tshabangu who claims to be the CCC’s interim secretary-general. Tshabangu has to date recalled scores of CCC MPs alleging that they are no longer members of the party. However, Nelson Chamisa, the leader of the CCC, strongly denies Tshabangu’s claim and refutes the notion that he is the party’s interim secretary-general. Chamisa firmly believes that Tshabangu is being manipulated by the ruling party, ZANU PF, to recall CCC members from Parliament for the ruling party to secure a two-thirds majority. Following the recalls, by-elections were held on December 9, 2023, and ZANU PF emerged victorious in seven out of the nine contested seats, all of which were previously occupied by CCC members. *More Pindula News* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
