Harare man, Precision Muzadzi, has brought an impeachment case against Zimbabwe President, E.D. Mnangagwa.
In a court case filed at the Constitutional court on Monday, Moreprecision MuzadziĀ cites President Emmerson D. Mnangagwa and several other government bodies.
The core of the application revolves around a resolution made at a ZANU PF conference in October 2025, directing the Minister of Justice and Speaker of Parliament to take steps to extend President Mnangagwa’s term in office from 2028 to 2030, which is two years beyond the constitutional limit.
Moreprecision Muzadzi, the applicant, argues that this resolution and the actions of the respondents violate numerous sections of the Zimbabwean Constitution, including:
- The President’s Oath of Office (to uphold and defend the Constitution).
- Political rights of citizens to free, fair, and regular elections (Chapter 4, Section 67).
- Presidential term limits (Chapter 5, Section 95), which state a five-year term coterminous with Parliament.
- Provisions regarding constitutional amendments (Section 328), specifically that amendments to term limits do not apply to the incumbent.
- The principle that executive authority derives from the people (Chapter 5, Section 88).
The applicant seeks an order from the Constitutional Court declaring the respondents’ conduct unconstitutional, ordering the Speaker of Parliament to initiate the removal of the President under Section 97 for wilful violation of the Constitution, upholding the political rights of citizens, ordering the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission to prepare for 2028 general elections, and prohibiting unprocedural constitutional amendments. The applicant also requests that the Zimbabwe Human Rights Commission summon the respondents for human rights observance.
The document also includes annexures, such as a “Vision 2030” foreword by President Mnangagwa from 2018, and news reports about the ZANU PF resolution to extend his term.
