WATCH LIVE as Gambakwe unpacks the response by war veteran, Blessed Geza, who has denied ever talking to Mnangagwa about returning toe Zimbabwe.

1. Main Story: Blessed Geza vs. Fake Account

The speaker’s top story involved Blessed Geza (“Mdara Geza”), a prominent newsmaker known for opposing President Mnangagwa’s potential third term.

  • Geza’s Denial: Geza posted on his verified social media account to deny any affiliation with a fake account operating in his name.

  • Fake Account’s Claims: The fake account had falsely claimed that Geza had a “cordial phone conversation” with President Mnangagwa, resolved their differences, and was considering returning to Zimbabwe.

  • Geza’s Stance: The speaker clarifies that Geza’s real account reaffirmed his determination to “see the back of ED (Emmerson Mnangagwa)” and that he has not met or reconciled with him.

2. ZANU-PF Succession & Internal Politics

 

The speaker provided an analysis of the political landscape within ZANU-PF.

  • Tagwirei’s Rallies: Tagwirei has been holding large rallies and promising tenders, but the speaker observes he “does not have a plan” beyond giving out money and handouts, which is unlikely to win over the broader population.

  • Mnangagwa’s 2030 Plans: The speaker claims that on November 2nd, President Mnangagwa told all ZANU-PF chairmen he is “not able to go beyond his 2028 limit” and will not seek a 2030 term. This has led to a political shift to “pushing Tagwirei to the front” as a potential successor.

3. Speaker’s Grievance with “Point 5 Creative”

 

A significant portion of the stream was dedicated to the speaker addressing a video by “DJ Holy” of “Point 5 Creative.”

  • Defamation Accusation: The speaker accused the DJ of using his name (“Gambakwe”) for clicks by falsely claiming in a video that “Nigel Sibanda is friends with Gambakwe.”

  • Threat of Lawsuit: He vehemently denied this, stating Job Sikhala’s own account of his arrest never mentioned him, and threatened to sue DJ Holy for defamation.

  • Clarification on Job Sikhala: The speaker claims that Nigel Sibanda was paying Job Sikhala’s bills (flights, hotels) and that Sikhala and his team “must take responsibility” for “taking money from ZANU-PF members” rather than blaming others. He stated he has never met Nigel Sibanda.

4. General News & Media Roundup

 

The speaker covered several other news items and reviewed various media sources:

  • Peter Dube Conviction: Peter Dube was convicted in Bulawayo for the murder of two people in Gweru. The judge noted irregularities in the case, including the fact that a third victim who died later was not included in the charges and that Dube’s wife, who allegedly helped him escape, is not facing charges.

  • Business News: A review of “confusing” financial results from Econet and FBC, which were reported in the new ZIG currency.

  • Newspaper Review: Summaries from The Herald (Mnangagwa and Hichilema at the Bi-National Commission, Chiwenga in Botswana), and a ZEC announcement of an uncontested ZANU-PF win in a Mazowe by-election.

  • Social Media Checks: The speaker reviewed posts from regional leaders like President Hichilema of Zambia and Duma Boko of Botswana, as well as Zimbabwean figures like Nelson Chamisa and President Mnangagwa.
