Charamba Criticized Mumba For "Breaching" SADC Protocols In The Election Report Compilation

Zimbabwe’s presidential spokesperson, George Charamba, has criticised Dr. Nevers Mumba, the head of the Southern African Development Community (SADC) Election Observer Mission, for allegedly breaching SADC protocols in compiling the region’s report on Zimbabwe’s recent elections.

Several observer missions, including SADC, raised concerns about voter intimidation and irregularities during the August 23 polls, stating that they did not comply with the country’s constitution and regional and international principles.

Charamba argued that elections are a complex process that goes beyond a single day and suggested that key decisions regarding the SADC Observer Mission’s report should not be solely in the hands of one individual overseeing a subsidiary body. He said:

We are seeing an enthusiastic chairman of a process which is in fact a SADC one. He does not report to the Zambian people. Which is why we all were flabbergasted to find him spending as much as more than 2 hours on a national television. Who is he reporting to? This is a SADC mission for goodness’ sake, appointed by the chairman of a SADC organ. Not SADC Summit, SADC Organ, right? What it means is, that the preliminary report still has to: 1. Become a final report and when it becomes a final report, it still has to be tabled before a council of ministers which is really a body which brings together foreign ministers of SADC. There is a council of ministers and is probably meeting around February, March. When that has happened and the foreign ministers must look at that report, they will then push it upwards to the SADC Troika. It still has to come to Summit and this will be about August next year (2024). It is only at Summit that that report is tabled, discussed, amended, endorsed or rejected.

Meanwhile, Nelson Chamisa, leader of the main opposition party, Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC), reiterated his party’s rejection of the election results. Chamisa expressed doubt about pursuing legal action within Zimbabwe’s courts and instead viewed the SADC as a court of public opinion that had already deemed the election a sham.

The situation in Zimbabwe remains contentious, with political stakeholders expressing differing opinions on the election’s legitimacy and the best approach to address their concerns.

SADC now has its final report, stating that the election in Zimbabwe lacked legitimacy. Dr. Mumba, the Chairperson of the SADC EOM, explained that the only difference between the preliminary and final reports is the inclusion of electoral developments. He said the report was written and approved by over 20 individuals, making it a conclusive SADC report.

Zanu pf is no longer a party.Zanu pf is non existent. A dead Dodo. The work ZANU pf is now an expired brand name used by a small MAFIA club of very few people, led by the highest office and protected by the army, police and CIO. These few have corrupt ties with China, Russia, Belarus, Malaysia, the Middle East. The few individuals are personally benefiting from mineral extraction. Daily our gold, iron, lithium, chrome, uranium, coal, nickel, diamond, platinum etc leaves the country.The rest of us don't benefit from this mineral exploitation.

There is a sticking similarity between G Charamba and C Mutsvangwa ~ use of old 5th-15th century English. They speak/write Medieval English. No wonder even Presidential speechess don't bring out clarity easily to the intended audience. This English does not at all communicate the idea. It's dead English. No one speaks like that anymore. Modern day English has no jaw breakers. kkkk Svinurai

Charamba and Mutsvangwa are cowards. They are scared little men. Dear Zimbabweans ~ please don't mind them at all. Something not so good is driving their crazy vocalisations. Certainly their heads need examination. One day soon Zimbabwe will know why. Their awkward vocalisation is just a smoke screen.It's not love for the country. None of that. There is certainly something behind all this noise. Pane zviri kuda kuvanzwa apa.Chowadi chichabuda pachena. Rine manyanga hariputirwi

*CIA’S ZIM ELECTION OPERATION.* #OperationStrategicAmbiguity!!! Here is the backstory to the Zimbabwean elections that the ANC must understand, as similar events have unfolded in Zambia too. The same tactics are likely to be deployed in South Africa’s 2024 elections, if the ANC is not vigilant. Already, we are witnessing economic sabotage in South Africa aimed at putting them at a disadvantage in next year’s election. During the recent Zimbabwean elections, CIA hackers, along with hackers in Turkey, infiltrated the ZEC (Zimbabwe Electoral Commission) electoral system, just as they did in Zambia in 2021, to assist Hichilema usurp power from Lungu. In Harare, the hackers strategically placed a communication team at the Holiday Inn on the same floor with the EU delegation, and a backup team in the Grange. Their task was to announce the manipulated results fed into the ZEC digital system to pre-empt the election's outcome and bypass V11 forms. To bolster this scheme, some members of SADC, led by Zambia’s Mumba, and AU observers, under the influence of the French puppet Moussa Faki in Addis Ababa, had already been bought to draft negative reports to tarnish the Zim government and cast doubt on any statements they would make thereafter. These reports were rapidly disseminated by Western and South African media, to shape African perceptions by suggesting that ZANU PF was attempting to steal an election believed to be favoring the opposition. The plan was, the teams at the Grange and Holiday Inn would commence publishing results from the hacked server, suggesting a landslide victory for the opposition. The media would then amplify these manipulated results, and by the end of election day, tainted by media reports -when ZANU PF discovered the hacking- SADC and AU would exert pressure on them to accept results from the compromised ZEC system. Given this rigging plan, Chamisa neglected to collect V11 forms because their electoral victory was guaranteed by the digital manipulation. They were also aware that they would lose in the physical V11 vote count, hence the plan to leak digital results. Unbeknownst to the hackers, some of the opposition's allies had already revealed the operation, and Zim intelligence was prepared for the same cyberattack which had been used to oust Lungu in Zambia. So, when the hackers breached the system, the Zim intelligence initiated their counter. They promptly changed ZEC server passwords and issued new ones. Almost immediately, the system was hacked again, indicating someone was leaking information to the CIA. In response, they changed the passwords again, this time entrusting them to only one person and making additional security code changes, successfully thwarting further hacking attempts. On the ground, ZANU PF ensured that two agents were stationed at all polling stations. Once results were tallied, they secured V11 forms and promptly transmitted them to ZANU PF HQ via phone for aggregation. As a result, by end of voting day, ZANU PF had received all V11 forms, except those from polling stations that received vote extensions. Throughout the night, results were tabulated, revealing a significant lead for ZANU PF and the President. Meanwhile, the CCC didn’t collect V11 forms, as they were confident of winning through the CIA-style digital rigging. However, when the CIA realized their plan had been compromised, they had no time to alert the opposition. The Grange and Holiday Inn teams were apprehended and disclosed the presence of other teams in Kenya. With the hackers blocked, they were left unable to manipulate the numbers further. Despite media claims of election theft, the disruption of the digital vote rigging, meant V11 forms became the primary data source required to determine the winners. From here, ZEC was able to announce accurate results that matched the V11 forms to the digital system, leaving the opposition with the burden of producing V11 forms in court to prove that the election was stolen. The opposition has subsequently declined to go to court. This was #OperationStrategicAmbiguity and many Africans were in cahoots with the Americans, western and South African media and people like Chris Maroleng in trying to push for regime change in Zimbabwe but they were foiled by a very astute Zimbabwean intelligence and some patriots who exposed the plan last minute. Written by Rutendo Bereza Matinyarare, Chairman of ZASM and ZUAUWS anti-sanctions movements on the 4th of September, 2023.

some people are silly-minded Cant you see that this election is completely over. None will reverse the proceedings. Its now water under the bridge. chamisa must wait until he matures politically. this young man needs more grooming. He is not fighting zanu pf but people of Zimbabwe. Do you think zanu will suffer. Worse, He is hypocritical. He claims to be a pastor. who called him to be a pastor. If he is a man of God how is he going to work with those who dont belive in christianity. for example, the traditional chiefs. how is he going to officiate at heroes celebrations where the dead are worshipped

🤔🤔I hope we will hear ED doing the same. ***Mugabe resigned, allegedly under duress, on 21 November 2017 after leading the southern African country since the attainment of independence in 1980. In a resignation letter read by the speaker of the National Assembly, Jacob Mudenda, ***Mugabe said: My decision to resign is voluntary on my part and arises from my concern for the welfare of people in Zimbabwe and my desires to see a smooth, peaceful and non-violent transfer of power. Kindly give public notice of my resignation as soon as possible as required by the constitution. Yours faithfully, Mugabe.*** During his 37-year rule, Zimbabwe had mixed fortunes. The nation benefited from his so****t policies but corruption by some of his cabinet ministers resulted in the collapse of the economy.

ZANU PF Patriots have saluted Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) legislators for taking oath of office, despite claims by their leader that the just ended disputed polls are null and void. Chamisa is calling for fresh polls alleging that the recently held elections were a sham, manipulated and therefore not free and fair. While CCC disputes the outcome, the party saying it would not boycott the swearing in ceremony and ZANU PF Patriots have since congratulated the CCC MPs who have just been sworn in. “Well done CCC MPs for defying Chamisa. “It’s him who lost, kwete imi. “Remember, you have a good president, Cde ED,” said ZANU PF Patriots. Since 1000 hrs, the Clerk of Parliament Kennedy Chokuda has been administering the Oath/ Affirmation of Members of Parliament as provided in Section 128 of the Constitution of Zimbabwe as read together with Standing Order 2 of the National Assembly Standing Orders, to groups of ten Members at a time, in alphabetical order until they have all taken the Oath.

On which national TV station did Mumba spend two hours? If that TV station is not in Zimbabwe and neither on any bouquets of decoders permitted in Zimbabwe I do not expect the spokesperson to be commenting on it as it is illegal to watch foreign media for Zimbabweans, and he should lead by example. Also, Mumba was sent by, and represented the SADC, and, if there is any misgivings, it is the SADC that should be approached, not us.

Ever since I was born, I haven't seen or heard a thief admitting that he or she was wrong, they always find a reason. Dr Mumba told the exact story that was on the ground. Thumbs up Dr Mumba for letting the cat out of the bag. He was just neutral and gave out his best by writing the outright truth. Dr Mumba's truthfulness caused pain to some thieves that we live with, those that believe that they are more Zimbabweans than others. So Dr Mumba is 100% CORRECT.

All the matters raised affect all political parties implying it's the standard which doesn't meet what is expected. The intimidating is also more inclined to Zanu pf but remember live videos of zanu supporters who were beaten up by CCC because they were wearing zanu regalia. So in the end to some extent both parties had the same experience . Nothing whatsoever can be a reason to nulify results. It's a soccer match where both teams were given yellow cards whilst playing in a wet& slippery stadium. Analyze again all his reasons & see whether the factors affect only the opposition. If even affects Dougie who pulled out much earlier.

@Fugu PF. What is more important, the Truth or Protocol? Remember protocol & procedure is meant to distort the truth. Look at how long it takes before the report is finally discussed by the SADC Council? We need tge truth now, not next year.
