Blessing Geza, a war veteran and member of the ZANU PF Central Committee, has strongly condemned party members calling for an extension of President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s presidency beyond the constitutionally mandated two terms, labeling their actions as treasonous.

In an exclusive interview with HStv, an online television and radio platform operated by Alpha Media Holdings, Geza expressed his disapproval of a recent ZANU PF resolution passed during the party’s 21st National People’s Conference in Bulawayo. The resolution proposed extending Mnangagwa’s presidency until 2030, a move Geza believes undermines Zimbabwe’s Constitution.

Geza stated:
“I was at the conference and I was saddened. First and foremost, we have a Constitution which must be respected by everybody. The President himself took an oath of office to respect the Constitution of Zimbabwe. They took the oath of office so they could protect and defend the Constitution of Zimbabwe, but they are not doing that.”

He went on to accuse those advocating for the extension of committing treason, saying:
“They are committing treason. Those people must be arrested and those people must be fired from ZANU PF. We want to see those people charged.”

Geza’s remarks highlight his firm belief that adherence to the Constitution is non-negotiable, and that any efforts to bypass it should be met with serious consequences.
