Increasing the cost of authoritarianism is itself a meaningful form of resistance. A regime that panics at the prospect of peaceful protest reveals more about its insecurity than the citizens it seeks to intimidate.

Constitution Defenders Forum Harare Federation, Director of Programs Paul Gorekore remains behind bars. His only “crime” is standing up to defend and protect the Constitution of Zimbabwe. He deserves our voices, our solidarity, and our unwavering support. No one should be imprisoned for peacefully defending constitutionalism. We demand his immediate unconditional release, and we will continue the fight until justice prevails.

Zimbabweans in the UK, friends of Zimbabwe, and all defenders of democracy, the Federation invites you to a Town Hall Meeting on 6 June 2026 at John Foster Hall, Oadby, Leicester from 1 PM - 5PM.

The meeting will be addressed by the CDF Convener Tendai Biti, who will share key insights on the constitutional crisis and the way forward for our country.

This is a moment to engage, organise, and stand together against Constitutional Amendment Bill No. 3.

23/04/2026

Amendment Bill No. 3 is the biggest existential threat we face today. Contrary to claims of advancing any developmental agenda, it seeks to advance and protect the continuation of corruption, misgovernance, poor service delivery, rising unemployment, deepening poverty, and the daily hardships our people endure. Fellow citizens this is a decisive moment, let’s stand firm and brace for lawful, decisive action to defend the Constitution and secure the future of Zimbabwe.

Emmanuel Sitima and Takunda Mhuka are behind bars for standing up for the Constitution. Sitima has been denied bail, and Mhuka who was actually assaulted, is the one detained. This is a clear case of a system being used to punish people for speaking out against Amendment Bill No. 3. If this can happen to them, it can happen to anyone. We cannot stay silent, let’s demand their release and

In a society where democratic space is closing, Resistance does not disappear, it shifts and finds new ways to be heard. Here is a clear signal that young people are refusing to be silenced, standing up against Amendment Bill No. 3 despite growing pressure and intimidation.

The denial of bail to Takunda Mhuka is deeply unjust and unacceptable. It reflects a justice system that is failing to uphold fairness, proportionality, and the basic rights of individuals. We cannot normalise this. I call on all who believe in justice to stand in solidarity and demand his release.

Any attempt to amend the Constitution outside its prescribed safeguards is a violation of the people’s sovereignty and must be firmly resisted.

We call on all Zimbabweans to assert their constitutional rights, reject this Bill, and stand in active defence of the Constitution. This is a moment for collective, decisive action. The people must rise, and the Constitution must be defended.

The Constitution Defenders Forum is a civic platform committed to defending Zimbabwe’s Constitution, promoting constitutionalism, and strengthening democratic accountability.

Our immediate task is to defend the Constitution against attempts to amend it in order to extend presidential term limits. The chaotic, flawed, and unprocedural public hearings have exposed a deliberate process that undermines constitutional standards and citizen participation.

This moment calls for urgency. We must conscientize citizens, mobilize for coordinated civic action, and prepare for a possible referendum.
