In this powerful speech, former Finance Minister and opposition leader Tendai Biti delivers a hard-hitting analysis of Zimbabwe's permanent state of crisis and the dangerous Constitutional Amendment Bill (Cab 3/4 2026). He breaks down how the proposed changes seek to: Remove the people's right to directly elect the President Extend presidential terms from 5 to 7 years Use the "notwithstanding" clause to allow Mnangagwa to stay in power beyond 2028 Weaken independent institutions and entrench state capture Biti warns that Zimbabwe is facing an existential threat worse than previous crises and calls for the immediate withdrawal of this bill. A must-watch for anyone concerned about democracy in Zimbabwe and Southern Africa.
