President Mnangagwa comments on proposed Constitutional changes

# Zimbabwe president Emmerson Mnangagwa has publicly commented for the first time on Zimbabwe’s Constitutional Amendment Bill Number Three, which seeks to extend his term from 2028 to 2030. The bill also proposes replacing the presidential popular vote with a parliamentary ballot system. Mnangagwa says citizens were given a fair opportunity to express their views during the nationwide consultation process. The bill will now move to Parliament’s Justice Committee before being debated when lawmakers resume sittings next month.
