Buhera West Member of Parliament <a href="https://pindula.co.zw/Tafadzwa_Mugwadi">Tafadzwa Mugwadi</a> (ZANU PF) has warned businessman <a href="https://pindula.co.zw/Tinashe_Mutarisi">Tinashe Mutarisi</a> to desist from “provoking” the government after he clashed with preacher-cum-ZANU PF apologist <a href="https://pindula.co.zw/Passion_Java">Passion Java</a>, and singer <a href="https://pindula.co.zw/Mudiwa_Hood">Mudiwa Hood</a> on social media.
Mutarisi, who is the Executive Chairman and Founder of Nash Holdings, on Tuesday, slammed Java and Hood, saying they were jealous of him for “the love and respect from the people of Zimbabwe” that he receives without putting any effort.
He also claimed that Java had continuously attacked him and his Nash Paints business “without any valid reason.”
Posting on X, Mugwadi said he had noted that Mutarisi has been using his social media channels to push for a confrontation with the Government.
Mugwadi said Mutarisi had suggested that a week-long power cut that affected his operations at Nash Paints was an act of sabotage.
The former ZANU PF director of information and publicity warned the businessman that he should not consider himself special and that he would be targetted. Wrote Mugwadi:
<blockquote>
I come in peace but I should opine that from face value, a clear observation of your trends on social media clearly shows you could be brooding for needless confrontations.
Our Gvt has promoted all forms of business, local &amp; foreign through deliberate policies aimed at creating an enabling environment for business to thrive.
To then single out electricity challenges as if they were targeted on u/ that they are unique to Zim alone in light of known variables affecting electricity availability is literal dishonesty.
That said our Gvt has produced a Masiyiwa, the Mashwedes, the Mudiwas, the Sakundas, the bankers you name them &amp; houses top global firms like the John Derres of this world without incident nevermind their beliefs, real or perceived.
Why would u think in this class, that u are the hilltop that should be targeted? While individually, entrepreneurs put effort into growing their businesses, let us not desecrate the creators of the environment by unprovoked innuendos. Some modicum of decency and respect will do.
</blockquote>
Mutarisi has, however, received support from members of the public who are apparently disgusted by Java’s antics.
Musicians <a href="https://pindula.co.zw/Seh_Calaz">Seh Calaz</a> and <a href="https://pindula.co.zw/Baba_Harare">Baba Harare</a>, as well as social media personality <a href="https://pindula.co.zw/Night_Shadaya_Tawona">Shadaya</a>, have also expressed their support for Mutarisi.

Don't Provoke Us, Tafadzwa Mugwadi Tells Tinashe Mutarisi

Tafadzwa Mugwadi, the ZANU PF Member of Parliament for Buhera West, who was elected in the recent harmonized elections, has disregarded the engagement efforts of Nelson Chamisa, leader of the opposition Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC), with the SADC and African Union (AU), considering them insignificant. According to Mugwadi, these actions will not impede Zimbabwe from carrying out its affairs.
During an interview with a reporter from Pindula News regarding the inauguration and swearing-in ceremony of President Emmerson Mnangagwa at the National Sports Stadium in Harare on Monday, Mugwadi stated:
<blockquote>
Iwe unogona kungoindawo kuSADC mangwana uchienda nezvichemo zvako semaendero arikufunga kuti anogona kuita hakurambidziwi kuenda. KuSADC kwakangofanana nekumapurisa. Kukamba yemapurisa hakurambidziwi munhu anoda kuendako uyezve ndiye anoziva zvaanenge achinotsvaka ikoko. Asi kanganise mamwe mazuva iwe ukaenda kumapurisa unogona kunobatwa nemhosva uriwe ukadobva wasungwa ikoko mazuva Uye zvaanonotsvaka ikoko hazvinei nekufambiswa kwebasa remunyika yeZimbabwe. VaMnangagwa vatovapo, isu tatovapo samaMP tangomirirawo process yedu. Zvoreva kuti iwe naChamisa makafanana asi makasiyana neni saMember of Parliament, matosiyana naVaMnangagwa semutungamiriri wenyika.
</blockquote>
Loosely translated, Mugwadi said:
<blockquote>
You (Pindula reporter), and Nelson Chamisa are on equal footing. You have the same opportunity to go to SADC tomorrow and present your grievances, just as he believes he can. No one is prevented from visiting SADC, as it is comparable to a police station where anyone can report their concerns. However, exercise caution, as sometimes reporting an issue to the police can result in your own arrest. Furthermore, Chamisa’s activities at SADC will not impact Zimbabwe’s affairs. President Mnangagwa has already been inaugurated, and we, including myself (Mugwadi) and others, are Members of Parliament awaiting the swearing-in process. This indicates that you and Chamisa are equals, but you are not on equal footing with me as an MP, and neither are you equal to President Mnangagwa.
</blockquote>
When asked about the possibility of a Cabinet reshuffle, Mugwadi declined to comment, stating that it falls under the president’s jurisdiction and is a task beyond his authority or position.

The Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) initially intended to challenge President Mnangagwa’s re-election in court alleging that the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) had manipulated the results in favour of the ZANU PF leader. The party later chose not to pursue legal action arguing that the judiciary is compromised in favor of ZANU PF. Previously, the CCC challenged the results of the 2018 presidential election in the Constitutional Court but lost the case, with Chief Justice Luke Malaba ruling that the party failed to provide evidence of election rigging. The party asserts that the ruling was predetermined due to Malaba’s close ties to Mnangagwa, who extended his term by five years without a formal process.
The CCC cites preliminary reports from observer missions that highlight various irregularities during the election. These include the arrest of over 40 activists from civic society organisations, allegations of voter intimidation in rural areas, and significant delays in distributing ballot papers in opposition strongholds. The CCC is now advocating for fresh elections overseen by an “impartial” body such as SADC, AU, or the United Nations, rather than the “biased” ZEC.

WATCH: Mugwadi Dismisses Chamisa's Engagement With SADC And AU As Insignificant

ZANU PF officials have expressed their expectations for President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s second term, emphasising a focus on improving the lives of the public. <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Tafadzwa_Mugwadi/">Tafadzwa Mugwadi</a>, the recently elected Member of Parliament for the Buhera West constituency, spoke to Pindula News during the inauguration and swearing-in ceremony of President Mnangagwa. Mugwadi highlighted several key areas for transformation, including people’s lives, infrastructure development, tourism, and the economy. He said:
<blockquote>
We anticipate that our country will make significant progress towards President Mnangagwa’s Vision 2023 which aims to improve the lives of our people, enhance our infrastructure to match regional standards, combat drug abuse, and ensure food security through the programs implemented by President Mnangagwa. I believe the tourism sector will experience notable growth. Furthermore, I expect there to be tolerance, unity, and peace among all participants in the harmonised elections, both winners and losers. The presence of former Vice Presidents Joice Mujuru and Cde Phelekezela Mphoko, and former First Lady Grace Mugabe and her family at the event serves as evidence of the unity among Zimbabweans and their commitment to these values.
</blockquote>
Takudzwa Gambiza, an Urban Development Corporation (Udcorp) board member and former ZICOSU president, said he expects to see more youthful faces occupying senior government positions. He told Pindula News:
<blockquote>
The president believes in blending the old generation and the younger, so I anticipate the appointment of young and vibrant Ministers. This expectation is also strengthened by the fact that ZANU PF fielded several young candidates in the National Assembly elections. Additionally, I believe the president will continue his efforts in engaging and re-engaging with various stakeholders. Locally, he has already initiated dialogue with political actors through POLAD (Political Actors Dialogue). While it is unlikely that members of opposition parties will be included in his Cabinet due to ideological differences, losing candidates who genuinely care about the well-being of Zimbabweans will certainly have the president’s attention. He seeks individuals who share his vision and ideology, although he is not limited in his choices. If he believes someone outside his party is suitable for a Cabinet position, he is free to make that decision.

Jones Musara, a member of ZANU PF and Varakashi for ED chief, reiterated the sentiments expressed by his fellow party members. He emphasized his expectation for a speedy provision of public goods and services. He said:
<blockquote>
I anticipate an accelerated provision of essential services to meet the needs of Zimbabweans. These needs encompass access to healthcare, clean water, employment opportunities, and an improvement in salaries.
</blockquote>
<figure aria-describedby="caption-attachment-263277" class="wp-caption aligncenter" id="attachment_263277" style="width: 707px"><img alt="" class="size-full wp-image-263277" decoding="async" height="608" loading="lazy" sizes="(max-width: 707px) 100vw, 707px" src="https://news.pindula.co.zw/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Jones-Musara.jpg" srcset="https://news.pindula.co.zw/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Jones-Musara.jpg 707w, https://news.pindula.co.zw/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Jones-Musara-300x258.jpg 300w" width="707"/><figcaption class="wp-caption-text" id="caption-attachment-263277">Jones Musara attending President Mnangagwa’s Inauguration</figcaption></figure>
He also expressed his expectation for Zimbabwe to maintain its path of re-engagement and restore normal relations with other nations. Zimbabwe faced isolation at the beginning of the millennium due to the “controversial land reform program,” which resulted in the displacement of numerous white farmers.
Following years of isolation, Zimbabwe, under Mnangagwa’s leadership, has sought to mend ties with Western partners. However, his second term commences amidst ongoing economic challenges, such as an 80% devaluation of the Zim dollar and frozen international funding. The absence of foreign assistance is likely to perpetuate Zimbabwe’s economic difficulties, leaving millions uncertain about their future.
Furthermore, the limited number of world leaders congratulating Mnangagwa on his victory in the 2023 presidential election exacerbates the situation. Only three African presidents, including South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, attended the inauguration and swearing-in ceremony held at the National Sports Stadium on Monday.
<a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Nelson_Chamisa/">Nelson Chamisa</a>, leader of the opposition Citizens’ Coalition for Change (CCC) party, called for a fresh vote, claiming that the election was flawed. However, his party chose not to legally challenge the results, allowing for President Mnangagwa’s inauguration. Mnangagwa urged the opposition to seek legal remedies, defending the validity of the vote and warning against the spread of chaos, with a threat of crackdowns. Chamisa referred to the preliminary report by the SADC observer mission, which highlighted the election’s failure to meet regional and international standards. The EU observer mission also said while the voting itself was peaceful, significant delays in ballot paper distribution tainted the process, leading to accusations of opposition voter suppression.

ZANU PF Officials Expect President Mnangagwa To Improve Living Standards In His Last Term

ZANU PF is not losing sleep over reports that self-exiled former Political Commissar <a href="https://pindula.co.zw/Saviour_Kasukuwere">Saviour Kasukuwere</a> has joined the presidential race ahead of the 23 August harmonised elections, a party official has said.
ZANU PF director of information and publicity <a href="https://pindula.co.zw/Tafadzwa_Mugwadi">Tafadzwa Mugwad</a>i told <a href="https://www.newsday.co.zw/local-news/article/200012518/kasukuwere-joins-presidential-race">NewsDay</a> that the party was not concerned about a “fugitive of justice” in reference to Kasukuwere who faces arrest over a litany of charges. Said Mugwadi:
<blockquote>
ZANU PF does not lose sleep over nothing. There is no Zimbabwean constituency across the Limpopo to the extent that you are aware.
We are focused on winning the election for development and our indomitable presidential candidate H.E Cde ED Mnangagwa does not lose sleep over a barking fugitive of justice.
After all, it’s good to have ambitions, but it will be foolhardy and tomfoolery to aspire to empty an ocean using buckets.
We have already set preparations in motion for the inauguration of would-be President-elect, Cde ED Mnangagwa.
Let Tom, Dick and Harry throw their hat in the ring, but in the end, Floyd Mayweather has no defeat.
</blockquote>
However, a political analyst Rejoice Ngwenya, told NewsDay that if ZANU PF allows Kasukuwere to contest, their candidate, President Emmerson Mnangagwa will lose. Said Ngwenya:
<blockquote>
If that happens, then Mnangagwa is gone.
But I can tell you, Mnangagwa and his allies are busy doing what they can to stop Kasukuwere from contesting.
If he does, he will divide the Zanu PF vote.
But I don’t think he will even make it to the Nomination Court.
The chances are very slim. Mnangagwa won’t fold his hands and let it happen.
</blockquote>
Contacted for comment by NewsDay on Monday, 05 June, Kasukuwere said:
<blockquote>
I know people are interested to know (about the candidature), but I can assure you that you will be the first to get the official statement.
</blockquote>
Kasukuwere fled the country during the military coup in November 2017 and briefly returned home in January 2018 and was arrested on corruption charges.
The charges were later dismissed by the Harare Magistrates Court but after he left the country again.
In October 2020, the Government sought Kasukuwere’s extradition from South Africa after issuing a warrant for his arrest.

ZANU PF Not Losing Sleep Over Kasukuwere Presidential Ambitions - Mugwadi

The ruling party in Zimbabwe, ZANU PF, has denied allegations that the government is distributing title deeds and legitimising illegal settlements to gain votes in the upcoming elections this year.
The party’s director of Information and Publicity, <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Tafadzwa_Mugwadi">Tafadzwa Mugwadi</a>, made the claim in an interview with ZiFM’s Larry Kwirirayi on Monday night. 
Title Deeds and Elections:
When asked whether the ZANU PF administration was handing <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Epworth">Epworth</a> residents title deeds to persuade them to vote for the ruling party, Mugwadi said:
<blockquote>
We’re not doing it for elections. Last year there was no election when the president made that promise. When that promise was made, the opposition said that this was a lie, this was a political gimmick. No title deeds were going to be issued to residents in Epworth. No one took him (President <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Emmerson_Mnangagwa">Emmerson Mnangagwa</a>) seriously but the residents did and that’s why we won the Epworth constituency anyway.
</blockquote>
The president made a promise to grant title deeds to Epworth residents in March of last year, just before the 26th March by-elections. ZANU PF’s Zalerah Hazvinei Makari won the Epworth constituency in those by-elections.
Epworth is a residential suburb located in <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Zimbabwe" title="Zimbabwe">Zimbabwe</a>‘s capital city, <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Harare" title="Harare">Harare (formerly Salsbury)</a>. It is, however, not a part of the <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Harare" title="Harare">Harare</a> City Government. Salsbury refused to incorporate Epworth so it remained a separate community.
Retaining Land Ownership; 99-year-lease
Mugwadi stated that the government plans to maintain the 99-year leases to prevent land abuse, but he was unclear whether residents of Epworth who received title deeds are allowed to sell their residential properties. He said:
<blockquote>
We know very well that there are attempts by white people to reclaim land in Zimbabwe through backdoor means. What that means is that iwewe Larry tikakuti chitora maTitle deeds pa700 hectare farm iwe wonotsvaga Mr Jones kuti chihuyai mundibatsire kurima kana kuti woritengesa kuna Mr Jones iwewe wakariwana nemarii kuGovernment? You were given freely by government through the Land Reform Programme. Isn’t that so? So no one must seek to claim title over what he got freely from Government. So the thing is, we seek to retain ownership of the land through the state because we know that land reform processes in Africa are under threat from imperialists and neocolonialists who think that land reform should not have taken place.
</blockquote>
Radio show listeners expressed concerns about the difficulty that land beneficiaries may face in developing the land, which could potentially be taken away from them at any time.
Zimbabwe has carried out land reform in various stages since 1980, with the most notable being the Fast-Track Land Reform program initiated by the Robert Mugabe government in the early 2000s.

ZANU PF Speaks On Title Deeds, Land Ownership, 99-year Leases, 2023 Elections

ZANU PF has said there is no proof that the people who were filmed <a href="https://zero.pindula.co.zw/watch-zrp-speaks-on-murewa-political-violence-recorded-on-video/">assaulting some senior citizens</a> for supporting the opposition Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) in Murehwa Mashonaland East Province were members of the ruling party.
The attracted public outroar prompting the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) to launch investigations.
ZANU PF Director for Information, Tafadzwa Mugwadi said there is no evidence to suggest that the assailants are members of the ruling ZANU PF. ZBC News quotes him as saying:
<blockquote>
I condemn this conduct unreservedly. The culprits should be brought to justice. What I however find irresponsible is when desperate clueless political upstarts start to drive and wage misleading narratives that the perpetrators should be referred to as ZANU PF supporters.
This is needless and regrettable spin. Clearly, there is nothing in statements uttered or visuals shown which identifies the culprits as ZANU PF supporters. Remember CCC-MDC-T/ A Harvest House battles which were similarly blamed on ZANU PF yet it was their succession wars. To this day, they still have not taken responsibility over attempts to burn Dr Thokozane Khupe, Elias Mudzuri and Douglass Mwonzora at Tsvangirai’s funeral.
</blockquote>
He called upon fellow members of the ruling party to pay heed to calls made by President Emmerson Mnangagwa on peaceful and violence-free elections. He added:
<blockquote>
I advise my fellow politicians to desist from fronting politics at a crime scene no matter the temptation to grab headlines and attention. Let the perpetrators be treated as barbaric criminals who should be identified, arrested and rot in jail. On its part, ZANU PF does not tolerate any barbaric criminal conduct. Our philosophy of mobilisation is simple but powerful – ‘Nyika inovakwa nevene vayo’, which has become a national chorus.
President Emmerson Mnangagwa has clearly and unequivocally set the record clear on peaceful and violence-free elections. Whoever commit acts of violence in name of the party shall carry his or her cross and account. Let the Zimbabwe Republic Police do what they know best – investigations.
</blockquote>
CCC says the assailants are members of the ruling ZANU PF.
Zimbabwe is heading for general elections this year and observers say all political parties must come out clearly condemning all forms of violence.
Violence has been on the rise since late 2021 raising fears that this year’s elections might be bloody as the case was in 2008.

Murehwa Violence: "Nothing Identifies Culprits As ZANU PF Supporters" - Mugwadi

A ZANU PF official has called for tighter security around jailed Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) vice chairman Job Sikhala who has been in pre-trial detention since June 2022.
ZANU PF Director for Information, Tafadzwa Mugwadi, said Sikhala should be protected after the jailed Zengeza West MP recently accused some of his allies of trying to bring him poisoned food. Said Mugwadi:
<blockquote>
The State should increase security for Job Sikhala1 following his expression of real fears of danger from his peers in CCC.
Counter-killing in opposition is real but always finds a scapegoat in blaming the Zanu PF. The hypocrites he refers to are his rivals in CCC.
</blockquote>
In his New Year’s message sent to Zimbabweans from Chikurubi Maximum Security Prison, Sikhala intimated that CCC was infested by sellouts and hypocrites who want him dead. He wrote:
<blockquote>
The University of Chikurubi Maximum Security Prison has revealed to me treacherous hypocrites, sellouts, colluders with my persecution, and opportunists trying to capitalise on the predicament of the moment for cheap political and financial gain from my tormentors.
Some wished me dead. I am sick. Please, they must then pray for my death.
Some plotted schemes to destroy me by spreading false intelligence given to them by their handlers and are dabbling in rumoUr mongering and getting into deals to the extent of carrying poisoned food to deliver it with a friendly smile. I am aware of all their shenanigans.
… With respect, prison teaches one to distinguish real and true friends on the one hand and hypocrites on the other.
It opened me and exorcised from me some fallacies and falsehoods I had about some people around me.
It made me discover that my sincere, genuine and eternal friends are the masses and people of Zimbabwe, cutting across all classes and professions, domestically and in the diaspora.
The passion of their roars and bellows I hear on a daily basis is amazing and extraordinary.
A million kisses of love my dearest friends. Your sharing of pain with me is historic.
</blockquote>
Sikhala was arrested together with more than a dozen other activists for allegedly inciting violence in Nyatsime in June 2022 following the murder of party member Moreblessing Ali.
The other CCC activists have since been granted bail by the courts. | <a href="https://www.newzimbabwe.com/zanu-pf-wades-into-ccc-feud-calls-for-more-security-around-sikhala/">NewZimbabwe.com</a>

ZANU PF Calls For More Security Around CCC's Job Sikhala

ZANU PF Director of Information, Tafadzwa Mugwadi has described the United States of America as a “demented superpower” after it recently imposed sanctions on four Zimbabwean nationals.
On Monday, the US Treasury Department added President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s son, Emmerson Mnangagwa Jnr, Kudakwashe Tagwirei’s wife Sandra Mpunga, Nqobile Magwizi, and Obey Chimuka to the sanctions list.
Two companies controlled by Chimuka, Fossil Agro and Fossil Contracting, were also sanctioned by the U.S. for their alleged involvement with Sakunda, which is owned by Tagwirei.
Mpunga is the executive director of Sakunda and Magwizi is the chief marketing officer, according to a statement by the U.S. Treasury.
Posting on Twitter in response to the development, Mugwadi said the United States of America has gone rogue. He wrote:
<blockquote>
What the @ US Dept of State has done is an act of cowardice &amp; undoubtedly barbaric conduct that falls below the diplomatic bar.
It clearly reflects a demented superpower that has gone rogue, now aiming at non-assuming global citizens like Emmerson Jnr, a Chimuka &amp; an unknown housewife.
Anyway, needless to remind them that President Mnangagwa has reminded us that with or without sanctions, nyika inovaka navene vayo (a country is built by its owners).
</blockquote>
The designation of the four Zimbabweans and two Zimbabwean companies was announced one day before U.S. President Joe Biden hosted nearly 50 Heads of State from the African continent for the US-Africa Leaders summit.

ZANU PF Official Says United States A "Demented Superpower" After Mnangagwa's Son Is Sanctioned

ZANU PF has warned members of the public to be wary of fraudsters who are sending text messages to people claiming that the recipient has won farming implements from the ruling party.
In a statement, ZANU PF Director for Information and Publicity, Tafadzwa Mugwadi, said the party does not run a lottery.
He warned those behind the messages that the long arm of the law shall eventually catch up with them. Said Mugwadi:
<blockquote>
ZANU PF wishes to advise members of the public to be on alert in the wake of conmen fleecing and extorting unsuspecting Zimbabweans, by lying to them through cellphone messages that they have won tractors or farming implements. For the record, the Party does not run any lottery. 
Those are conmen and conwomen who are abusing the good name of the Party to fleece the public.
We encourage members of the public to report these unscrupulous thieves to the nearest law enforcement agents.
Investigations are ongoing and those behind such shenanigans shall account for their actions in the fullness of time.
Advise your relatives and friends to be on the look before they fall prey to these conmen and conwomen.

ZANU PF Distances Itself From "Tractors Competition" Messages

A provincial police intelligence officer has appeared before the courts accused of <a href="https://zero.pindula.co.zw/provincial-intelligence-officer-back-in-court-over-leaked-uz-law-exam-paper/">leaking the University of Zimbabwe (UZ) law degree examination paper.</a>
Superintendent Vigai Maunganidze was granted $50 000 bail when he appeared before deputy chief magistrate Tranos Utawashe.
Maunganidze was told not to interfere with State witnesses and not to use the cellphone line that he allegedly used to send the examination paper.
ZACC investigating officer Tafadzwa Chivavarika opposed bail in vain saying Maunganidze had shown the capacity to interfere with investigations after he allegedly phoned a witness, Farai Madombi, to delete the examination paper which he had sent via WhatsApp from his mobile phone.
Madombi was identified as a member of the Defence ministry.
Prosecutor Ephraim Zinyandu was in support of the ZACC officer in denying the accused bail.
But Maunganidze’s lawyer told the court that the ZACC investigating officer had failed to submit evidence of the leaked examination paper.
She said the document submitted in court as an exhibit was different from the one in Madombi’s phone. 
<h2>What happened:</h2>
It is alleged that on October 31 2022, Maunganidze obtained a UZ Faculty of Law examination paper on Administrative Local Government Law for 2nd-year students. It was supposed to be written on November 3.
Maunganidze, who was one of the students, shared the leaked paper via WhatsApp with Madombi, who was a third-year Bachelor of Substantive Laws student at UZ.
On November 1, Madombi sat for the Company Law examination at UZ, where some students were caught cheating and were disqualified. 
After the examination, ZANU PF director of information Tafadzwa Mugwadi, Madombi’s classmate, approached the accused and discussed the exam paper they had written. 
Mugwadi complained about the examination paper leakage and said he would raise a complaint with the Higher and Tertiary Education, Science and Technology Development minister.
Madombi allegedly shared the leaked Administrative and Local Government Law exam paper with Mugwadi via WhatsApp.
Mugwadi immediately notified UZ authorities who confirmed the paper as the one that was to be written by 2nd-year Bachelor of Substantive Laws students on November 3, 2022. 
The University then issued a notice to cancel the exam. 
The State alleges that Maunganidze unlawfully obtained and intentionally leaked the examination paper, adding that his actions dented the credibility of UZ.
He was arrested by Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission (ZACC) officers on Friday last week.

National Housing and Social Amenities minister <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Daniel_Garwe">Daniel Garwe</a> has said courts, the military, police and even health workers belong to the ruling ZANU PF.
Addressing party supporters in Seke on Tuesday, Garwe who doubles as ZANU PF Mashonaland East provincial chairperson said the ruling party will do anything to ensure President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s re-election next year, according to <a href="https://www.newzimbabwe.com/chikurubi-interview-sikhala-says-ready-to-stay-in-prison-as-long-it-takes-i-am-comfortable-with-them-keeping-me-here/">NewZimbabwe.com</a>.
His address was captured on video and the clip has gone viral. Garwe said:
<blockquote>
Courts, military and police belong to ZANU PF; even health workers belong to ZANU PF. Actually, we own almost everything.
President [Emmerson] Mnangagwa said the country does not tolerate violence but if they (opposition) provoke us, definitely we are going to fight them and deal with them accordingly.
We are preparing a whip for all those who insult Mnangagwa as we are preparing for our 2023 elections. Don’t keep quiet if someone insults your President, we have to fight back and defend him.
</blockquote>
His remarks come against the backdrop of a surge in cases of intra-party and interparty violence raising fears that the harmonised elections scheduled for 2023 will likely be bloody. 
Two months ago, former State Security minister <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Owen_Ncube">Owen Ncube</a> made similar threats at a ZANU PF campaign rally in Mberengwa, Midlands province saying “<a href="https://zero.pindula.co.zw/owen-ncube-threatens-worse-than-2008-political-violence-against-sell-outs/">2023 will be worse than 2008.”</a>
Zimbabwe Election Advocacy Trust (ZEAT) executive director Ignatious Sadziwa said Garwe must be must censored over the inflammatory remarks to avoid “another” disputed election. 
<a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/The_Election_Resource_Centre">Election Resource Centre (ERC)</a> director Barbra Bhebe said Section 67 of the Constitution guarantees the right to campaign freely and peacefully.
Meanwhile, ZANU PF information director <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Tafadzwa_Mugwadi">Tafadzwa Mugwadi</a> accused opposition parties and CSOs of cooking up stories on political violence “to solicit undeserved sympathies.”

"Courts, Military And Police Belong To ZANU PF, We Won Almost Everything" - Minister

ZANU PF Director of Information and Publicity Tafadzwa Mugwadi says the disruption of a Citizens’ Coalition for Change (CCC) Press conference on Tuesday is a manifestation of factionalism within the opposition party.
CCC spokesperson Fadzayi Mahere on Tuesday accused ZANU PF youths of storming the Media Centre in Harare to block the opposition party from holding its Press Conference.
Mahere said ZANU PF is scared of the opposition and is trying to push CCC to boycott general elections scheduled for 2023.
However, in a post on Twitter, Mugwadi claimed that CCC youths disrupted the presser to stop CCC leader Nelson Chamisa from imposing his preferred leaders for the party’s youth wing. Said Mugwadi:
<blockquote>
Dog eat dog in CCC – deadly factional strife as their leader [Nelson Chamisa] who has no legitimate claim to lead their party claims legitimacy to freeze posts of other politicians belonging to the CCC cult.
CCC youths disrupted the presser to stop the [Takudzwa] Ngadziore coup on Obey Sithole.
</blockquote>
 Chamisa is reportedly set to impose former student activist, Takudzwa Ngadziore, as the party’s youth assembly chairperson, albeit, on an interim basis.
Ngadziore will replace Obey Sithole, who left for Europe to further his studies.

Mugwadi Says CCC Youths Disrupted The Party's Press Conference

ZANU PF Director of Information, <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Tafadzwa_Mugwadi">Tafadzwa Mugwadi</a> has claimed that members of the opposition Citizens’ Coalition for Change (CCC) triggered the <a href="https://zero.pindula.co.zw/police-speak-on-matobo-inter-party-violence-between-zanu-pf-and-ccc/">violence that occurred in Matobo</a>, Matebeleland South on Sunday.
The opposition party had claimed that two legislators, Daniel Molokele and <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Kucaca_Phulu">Kucaca Phulu</a>, were “violently attacked” by ZANU PF members while mobilising voters ahead of the by-elections.
CCC also claimed that some female party members were stripped naked and assaulted by suspected ZANU PF members. 
In response to the claims, Mugwadi alleged opposition activists triggered the violence by chasing after ZANU PF elements and stripped naked to attract attention. He wrote:
<blockquote>
So they were recording this video while dodging bullets? We have always said CCC shameless charlatans have nothing to offer the electorate besides provoking violence.
It is clear they were chasing Zanu-PF vehicles and agitating for confrontation. The drama ended with stripping adult women.
See, they are legendary strippers. They have done that before. They also faint at Parliament. They can fake everything. If they were forced to remove CCC T-shirt as stupidly alleged so, the 3rd woman at the back with her CCC T-shirt is a martial artist right? #Dramaqueens.
</blockquote>
CCC party spokesperson, Fadzayi Mahere Monday maintained their supporters were waylaid and attacked by ZANU PF thugs.
She claimed scores of people had to be hospitalised, and some lost property and food. She said:
<blockquote>
Developments in Matobo confirm our call for a conducive environment for elections in Zimbabwe and a pre-election pact on reforms especially security of the voter and freedoms for citizens What we are seeing under (President Emmerson) Mnangagwa is not just the continued shrinking of the democratic space, but a complete collapse into lawlessness.
The campaign team met a convoy of Zanu-PF trucks (branded) numbering seven, that group barricaded the road and attacked Hon Nyoni’s truck damaging windows. He, however, managed to speed and evaded the illegal blockade.
Our team then drove to the Campaign Command Centre and the Zanu-PF supporters followed and barricaded the whole place, Kucaca Phulu and Nonhlanhla Mlotshwa went to try and engage them so as to understand what they wanted but before they could reach them, they started to throw stones at them.
Our team then retreated as gunshots were fired. A total of about five shots were fired by the Zanu-PF supporters. The team and agents abandoned the homestead and the Zanu-PF supporters proceeded to attack the homestead, breaking doors and all window panes.
They further attacked and damaged nine bicycles and four vehicles, breaking all windows and deflated tyres, they got into the house and looted groceries including meat that was being cooked.
They also took about 50 x 10kg bags of mealie meal, and also stole an undisclosed amount of money from the house.
</blockquote>
Politically-motivated violence has been on the rise in Zimbabwe since last year and fears abound that it could escalate and jeopardise the credibility of the 2023 elections.

Matobo Violence: Mugwadi Says "It's Clear CCC Members Were Chasing ZANU PF Vehicles"

Zanu PF Director for Information and Publicity Tafadzwa Mugwadi has continued waging a war against SABC foreign correspondent Sophie Mokoena who he says is parading fake news.
Mugwadi has been engaged in a war with Mokoena who he accuses of undermining President Mnangagwa and even threatened to publish a bombshell about the ANC trip to Zimbabwe if the ANC doesn’t reign in Mokoena.
Mugwadi used microblogging site Twitter and praised ZRP for arresting MDC Spokesperson Fadzayi Mahere for allegedly tweeting falsehoods and said:

Mugwadi was thrown under the bus by Zanu PF which stated that his utterances do not represent the position of the party. He refused to <a href="https://news.pindula.co.zw/2021/01/11/my-conscience-is-clear-mugwadi-responds-to-sanef-criticism/">apologize and said his conscience is clear.</a>
Mugwadi was asked by the NewsHawks to shed light on the bombshell on the ANC he was talking about and he said the ANC delegation to Zimbabwe wanted to stage a coup to topple Ramaphosa from power.
