However, Chamisa’s remarks evoked a number of different reactions from people with some condemning the presidential hopeful for his language which they said was misogynistic and disrespectful of women. However, others applauded Chamisa for his confidence and said his statements should not be taken seriously as it was just political banter. Here is how some people reacted,

Chamisa's joke about giving ED his sister on the stage of emotive and sensationalist twitter is mistaken but in our cultural context very relevant. We often joke with neighboring fathers who say "ndokupa mukadzi" we joke at work with your mothers who call us "mukwasha" 6 na 9

as @Wamagaisa rightfully put it no long ago, and i paraphrase: the moment politicians divert from the prepared speeches is the beging of gross errors but that what fascinate audience! it was uncalled for for Chamisa to promise ED his sister should he win

Crying more than the bereaved kķkķkkk,Chamisa sister is probably even non existent,it's just supposed to be a funny joke👆

I am surprised by people hell bent on criticising Nelson Chamisa, at the en of the day i just want a human leader, prone to error but genuine. My current leader is prone to violence and nothing is worse, not even a joke about giving away your sister

Chamisa promised to give ED her sister if ED wins 5% in a free and fair election. ED killed 20000 Ndebeles who is better.

So that Chamisa statement or 'joke' on handing over his 18 year old sister to ED if he got 5% of the vote. My interpretation of the statement is that it was used to reinforce a statement on the slim odds of ED… https://t.co/01NpaTAkrj

it was uncalled for for Chamisa to pledge his sister to ED under any circumstance. such rhetotics widen gender imbalances and has no place in the 21st century. Seeing women as objects that can be donated is regarding them as tabla rasas @matigary @cemambo @VascoDaGappah

Chamisa was just saying ED will never win the election. Are u saying he is willing to give her sister kuna Garwe ane 21 vana

Joke or figurative language – whatever point Chamisa was trying to make – the idea that a presidential candidate could put up his sister as a wager on the outcome of an election is disagreeable.

ED is married but with so many side chicks and kids. Chamisa knows tt he loves them women tts why he made a joke about giving him a sister

— Addmore sibanda (@SibandaAddmore) May 7, 2018

Chamisa is vile. How disgusting that he says he would ‘give’ his sister to ED if ED won. Wow!! on top of all that needs fixing in Zim, patriarchy is still rearing its ugly head. Women are not his to give!!

— Gugu (@Gugu_1210) May 7, 2018

As expected of an amateur,Chamisa has pledged to donate his 18yr old sister to President ED when ED wins the next Elections. Chamisa is a sexist who not only ill treated Khupe because she is a woman but has just also shown he blvs in imposing marriage partners for the girl child!

— Jones Musara (@JonesMusara) May 6, 2018

That was a joke don't take it serious,sometimes politicians must make a joke so that people may have minute of laughing. A normal person like knows that even if ED wins Chamisa won't give him his sister. It was just a joke.

— Mkanya🐒🇿🇼 (@ThatcherMauto) May 7, 2018

Cool down trevor its only a joke. Don't be over excited like that Chamisa doesn't even have a sister that age. When addressing people jokes are not prohibited. Ukwane

Find out if Chamisa indeed has a sister. Find out if she is 18-years-old. Find out if she indeed is looking for someone to marry.

— Moses Ziyambi (@ZiyambiM) May 7, 2018

I’m shocked why would you pimp out your sister !!!
If he can do that to is own flesh & blood what about isu vamwe.

Words reveal the quality of your minds & character Mr Chamisa. pic.twitter.com/QA5RajiL1I

MDC alliance candidate Chamisa paints a bad picture of himself as he says if ED gets 5% votes from the registered voters he will give him his 18 year old sister

— Rhyne Chikuni (@RyanChikuni) May 7, 2018

Very true. Chamisa is not a comedian. His statement on giving his sister to ED is irresponsible and misogynistic. It also drags his sister into public life and risk to her if we consider political violence contexts
