Keep Away From CAA3 Opponents, Ziyambi Tells ZANU PF Supporters

ZANU PF Politburo member Ziyambi Ziyambi has warned party supporters to distance themselves from people or organisations opposed to the Constitution of Zimbabwe Amendment (No. 3) Act, 2026 (CAA3), saying they should not be allowed to destabilise the country.

Ziyambi, who steered the Bill through Parliament as Justice Minister and Leader of Government Business, was speaking at the weekend’s “CAB3 Thank You Rally” held at Chakari Grounds in Chakari, Mashonaland West Province.

Similar rallies were held countrywide to thank supporters who the party says contributed to the passage of the amendment.

President Emmerson Mnangagwa signed the Constitution of Zimbabwe Amendment (No. 3) Act into law on July 7, 2026.

Addressing hundreds of supporters, Ziyambi said the ZANU PF-led government was now moving to implement the new provisions.

He urged party members not to join anyone planning to challenge the Act in court or to take part in protests against it.

“Some anti-CAB3 individuals will approach you to cause confusion and violence. Report them to the police,” Ziyambi said.

“Those bent on causing chaos should be dealt with decisively. We do not want violence in Zimbabwe. ZANU-PF does not believe in violence.

“Those with opposing voices should join the majority. That is democracy, unlike destroying other people’s property through acts of violence.”

Ziyambi said the immediate focus is now on administrative and electoral processes arising from the amendment, rather than further legislative battles.

During the Chakari rally, individuals and organisations seen to have excelled during the public hearings on CAB3 were presented with certificates and medals in recognition of their contributions.

Ziyambi said the amendment was necessary to ensure policy continuity and stability and called on party structures to mobilise communities to support implementation of the new provisions.
