Fuzwayo launches Nkulumane MP by-election campaign

Mbuso Fuzwayo, coordinator of the pressure group Ibhetshu LikaZulu, has launched a campaign to contest the Nkulumane parliamentary by-election set for December 20. The seat fell vacant following the death of sitting MP Desire Moyo, who was killed in a car crash involving an elephant along the Gweru–Bulawayo highway.

Posters across Nkulumane show Fuzwayo campaigning under the slogan "Reject 2030", denouncing Mnangagwa's alleged plans as "a betrayal of democracy and accountability."

The Bulawayo-based activist recently filed an application asking the Constitutional Court (ConCourt) to compel the government and ruling Zanu-PF to abandon reported plans to amend the constitution to allow Mnangagwa to extend his stay in power by two more years.

The move follows Zanu-PF's annual conference in Mutare last month, where the party resolved to fast-track implementation of a 2024 resolution proposing that Mnangagwa's term be extended beyond 2028.
