MEDIA REPORTS:
Nelson Chamisa has announced his return to active politics, saying this time he's launching a movement and not a political party; after he suddenly without notice jumped ship on this day 24 January in 2024, and ran away from the CCC party he had formed and led, claiming it had been infiltrated by Zanu-PF.
PUBLIC EYE:
Social movements are not formed or launched by an individual, they are people-driven and they emerge organically and spontaneously to address a specific, self-evident and broadly shared public grievance.
Otherwise, a party that is launched by an individual and which masquerades as a movement is the easiest thing to infiltrate and overrun. Will Chamisa run away, again, if that happens as it sure would?
That's the 64 million dollar question. Time will tell, but once bitten twice shy. Voter beware!
