War veteran Blessed Geza warns President Mnangagwa to step down by March 31 or face protests. Geza, criticizing the government’s corruption, urges Zimbabweans to join in an uprising and claims support from political figures like Nelson Chamisa. He emphasizes their right to protest while warning against possible government crackdowns.
Blessed “Bombshell” Geza, a defiant war veteran, has issued an ultimatum to Zimbabwe’s President Emmerson Mnangagwa to resign or face protests scheduled for March 31. He criticized Mnangagwa’s administration for corruption and mismanagement. During his first public online address, Geza called on citizens to join the uprising, emphasizing their constitutional right to protest for a better life for all Zimbabweans.
Geza urged participants to mobilize for the rallies, requesting transportation assistance for demonstrators. He emphasized the importance of showing up in large numbers to ensure the departure of Mnangagwa and his associates. Furthermore, Geza warned that protests should occur without the hindrance of law enforcement, highlighting the urgency and significance of their cause.
Currently evading capture, Geza has openly challenged Mnangagwa not to pursue re-election in 2028. He claims backing from prominent political figures, including Nelson Chamisa and Job Sikhala, in rallying against the government. He stated that political discussions have taken place to coordinate a strategic response to potential crackdowns by the ruling party.
Geza indicated that his coalition includes various political leaders and that they are collaborating on a forthcoming plan. He anticipated a quick mobilization effort while cautioning that any attempts by Mnangagwa to declare a state of emergency would be ineffective. The tensions within ZANU-PF draw parallels to the 2017 dynamics that led to Robert Mugabe’s ousting, showcasing ongoing political strife.
Geza’s call to action foreshadows significant public dissent against President Mnangagwa, spotlighting rampant corruption and misgovernance in Zimbabwe. His collaboration with established political figures aims to unify citizens for protests on March 31, potentially reigniting the political turmoil reminiscent of past regime transitions. As the political landscape evolves, the outcome of these demonstrations could reshape the nation’s governance.
