Sengezo Tshabangu Publicly Declares Support For Extension Of Mnangagwa Term Of Office<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
Tinashe Sambiri\u2013 Controversial Citizens Coalition for Change Secretary General Sengezo Tshabangu on Tuesday publicly declared his support for the Constitutional Amendment Bill that seeks to extend President Emmerson Mnangagwa\u2019s term of office beyond 2028.<\/p>\n
In a statement shared on X, Tshabangu said:
\u201cI wish to state my position clearly on the Amendment Bill recently gazetted by the Speaker of Parliament.<\/p>\n
I unequivocally support it solely for the national benefit of ongoing economic growth, which is steadily unfolding. This matter goes beyond interests of political parties.\u201d<\/p>\n
The declaration has sparked intense debate, as Tshabangu\u2019s support for the extension comes despite his party\u2019s stated position on constitutional governance and term limits.<\/p>\n
He added that his endorsement is motivated by what he perceives as the country\u2019s broader economic interests rather than partisan considerations.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is about the future and stability of our economy, not the interests of any political faction,\u201d Tshabangu emphasized.<\/p>\n
Observers note that Tshabangu\u2019s public backing of the amendment bill marks a controversial turn in Zimbabwe\u2019s political discourse, particularly given his role in the opposition party.<\/p>\n
