Taking to her X, Masarira shared the following
“Lieutenant General Anslem Nhamo Sanyatwe’s assertion that the army backs ZANU-PF and will engage in command voting is a blatant affront to democracy and a gross vi0lation of our constitution.”
“Section 211(3) explicitly mandates the army to uphold the fundamental human rights and freedoms of all citizens and remain non-partisan in their actions. It is essential for all army personnel to receive training on constitutionalism and human rights before making public statements that expose their ignorance.”
“Zimbabwe is a multiparty democracy, and we demand free, fair, and credible elections where no political party is disenfranchised. We expect a prompt apology and retraction from the General.”
