WATCH LIVE as Gambakwe responds to death threats made against him and blames Mnangagwa for the threats on his life.
Gambakwe portrays Mnangagwa as the main obstacle to Zimbabwe’s progress, accuses him of using fear and intimidation to cling to power, and calls for unity and focus among Zimbabweans to achieve real change. He remains defiant in the face of threats, insisting that Mnangagwa’s era is ending and urging the public to reject his tactics and leadership.
1. Mnangagwa is the main problem
Gambakwe repeatedly identifies Mnangagwa as the central problem facing Zimbabwe. He describes Mnangagwa as the root cause of the country’s challenges, including economic hardship, low salaries for civil servants, and a climate of fear and intimidation.
2. Rejecting Fear Tactics
Gambakwe accuses Mnangagwa and his associates of using threats, intimidation, and intelligence operations to instill fear among journalists and activists. He claims that these tactics are designed to silence critics and prevent meaningful change, but insists he is not afraid and will continue his reporting.
3. Focus on National Issues
Gambakwe contrasts Mnangagwa’s approach with that of genuine national leaders who focus on real issues—such as improving salaries, pensions, and public services—instead of engaging in “nonsense” or personal attacks. He urges his audience to stay focused on these national priorities and not be distracted by the regime’s attempts to shift attention.
4. Call for Change and Transition
He asserts that Zimbabwe is in a period of transition and that Mnangagwa’s time in power is coming to an end. Gambakwe expresses confidence that a new government will soon replace Mnangagwa, and he encourages Zimbabweans not to tolerate Mnangagwa’s “gimmicks” or lose sight of the broader struggle for change.
5. Criticism of Mnangagwa’s Leadership
Gambakwe criticizes Mnangagwa for being “too strong on intelligence but too weak on the economy,” blaming him for the country’s poor economic conditions and low wages. He says Mnangagwa is only interested in maintaining power and not in developing the nation.
6. Personal Commitment to the Cause
Gambakwe emphasizes his own dedication to reporting on Zimbabwe’s issues and supporting those who are fighting for change, despite the risks and threats allegedly orchestrated by Mnangagwa’s regime.
