A Zanu PF provincial official says members opposing Constitutional Amendment Bill Number 3 are being warned ahead of the bill’s completion. According to reports, Ezra Chadzamira, Minister of State for Provincial Affairs and Devolution and a state-aligned figure, made the remarks at a Zanu PF provincial inter-district meeting held at Clovelly in Masvingo on Saturday.
Chadzamira told party members that those working against CAB3 will “regret” their position once the constitutional amendment process is finalised. The comments are described as being directed at Zanu PF opponents within the party structure who are resisting the amendment.
Across the two accounts, the key point is that Chadzamira publicly signalled that opposition to CAB3 inside Zanu PF could lead to consequences after the bill’s passage and finalisation. The reports do not detail any specific penalties or timing beyond the reference to once the amendment process is complete, nor do they include direct responses from the groups said to be opposed to the bill.
