WATCH live as Gambakwe provides an update on the breaking news in Zimbabwe. Key Updates include:

1. Bulawayo Town Clerk Term Extension Denial (David Coltart)

 

The central theme is the denial of a term extension for the Town Clerk of Bulawayo, Christopher Dube.

  • Mayor’s Announcement: Bulawayo Mayor David Coltart revealed that there has been no term extension for Dube.

  • Legal Context: The speaker asserts that, under Zimbabwean law, a Town Clerk can only serve one five-year term.

  • Current Situation: Dube had already received an extension and was reportedly seeking a further extension until 2030, which the speaker calls “extremely unheard of” and “crazy”.

  • Dispute: Coltart’s statement was reportedly made to counter “completely false reporting” that suggested a legal resolution for the extension had been passed. The Mayor confirmed no council meeting or binding resolution for the extension took place.

2. Political Activity and Updates

 

The discussion touches on the activities of two prominent Zimbabwean political figures:

  • Constantino Chiwenga (Vice President): Chiwenga was reported to be in South Africa. He was seen arriving and later had a meeting with Paul Mashatile (South African politician), likely in the context of the G20.

  • Nelson Chamisa (Opposition Leader): Chamisa issued a condolence message on his X (formerly Twitter) account following the death of Bishop Paul Mwazha.

3. Death of Bishop Paul Mwazha

 

The death of a prominent religious figure was noted:

  • Bishop Paul Mwazha was a faith general and Apostolic sect leader who lived from 1918 to 2025.

  • Legacy: Chamisa’s condolence message praised Mwazha’s tireless work and devotion to the Great Commission (preaching the gospel).

4. Job Sikhala’s International Appearance

 

The speaker highlighted the planned international address by activist Job Sikhala:

  • EU Parliament: Sikhala is scheduled to address the EU Parliamentary Subcommittee on Human Rights on December 3, 2025, in Brussels, Belgium.

  • Topic: He is expected to speak about the suffering endured at the hands of the “tyrannical ZANU-PF”.
