constitutional reform

Opposition leader Nelson Chamisa has challenged President Emmerson Mnangagwa to submit proposed constitutional amendments to a public referendum, intensifying debate over Constitutional Amendment Bill No. 3 and the government's approach to fundamental legal reforms.

Zimbabwe's ruling party spokesman asserts opposition MPs align with proposed constitutional amendments to extend President Mnangagwa's tenure, as the country grapples with governance reforms and international engagement on debt restructuring.

As Zimbabwe's government pushes constitutional amendments that could fundamentally alter presidential selection, youth activists and civil society warn of democratic backsliding disguised as reform.
