Today, Zanu PF held its presidential campaign rally in Zaka. The rally was addressed by Zanu PF President Mnangagwa. In order to increase the number of people attending the rally, Zanu PF resorted to busing people from all provinces to attend the Zaka rally.
Zanu-PF bussed people from far areas such as Hwange, Victoria Falls, Gokwe, Harare, Bulawayo, Masvingo urban, among other areas. For today’s rally, Zanu PF used 1054 buses to transport people from all over Zimbabwe, according to Zanu PF member Mr. Mutambo.

Also, on the attached video Zanu PF two masters of ceremonies lied that, Masvingo roads have no potholes. The from Roy turn off to Zaka have worst potholes and it’s in bad state.
Additionally, Zanu PF incentivized people to attend today’s rally in Zaka by giving them one piece of chicken and small chips for lunch.
Due to hunger, people are now attending Zanu PF rallies to get food, t-shirts, and hats.
Moreover, rural people are attending Zanu PF rallies due to fear of victimization. The “mango” strategy advocated by CCC President Nelson Chamisa has been adopted by citizens. Citizens are now attending Zanu PF meetings but voting for CCC. Furthermore, Zanu PF has closed shops, vending areas, and is forcing people to attend the Zaka rally. They pretend to be Zanu-PF members in order to receive money, food, agricultural inputs, among others.
