⛔️ZANU PF abusing the Police Service have stormed the home of Hon Machingauta where an internal @CCCZimbabwe planning meeting was to take place as we lay out our program of action for 2023. ZRP lorries with armed police & teargas are camped at Hon Machingauta’s home.

🟡ZANU PF will say the tear-gassing & violence taking place at Hon Machingauta’s home as we speak is “stage-managed.”
