Opposition leader Advocate Nelson Chamisa has voiced his deep concern over the environmental degradation caused by the Zanu PF regime. In a passionate post on Facebook over the weekend, Chamisa expressed his commitment to environmental protection and the urgent need for responsible stewardship of Zimbabwe’s natural resources.

“BIG ON ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION…I’m big on environment and the green agenda. I wish to imprint a green legacy in my lifetime. I’m a green champion,” he stated. Chamisa emphasized his love for Zimbabwe’s natural beauty, saying, “I love nature. I love plants. I love trees. I love animals. I love people. I love Zimbabwe. Zimbabwe is beautiful.”

Highlighting the country’s rich environmental heritage, he pointed out that “Zimbabwe still has some nice all year round perennial rivers,” and stressed the importance of preserving these vital resources. He called for immediate action against what he described as “careless, mindless and heartless riverbed mining” and the destruction of the nation’s mountains, stating that such activities must be “checked and stopped.”

Chamisa concluded his statement with a rallying cry for environmental awareness, declaring, “#GreenIsClean #GreenZimbabwe #Greenpolicies.”

His remarks come at a time when calls for sustainable environmental practices are increasingly urgent, as many believe that a healthy ecosystem is essential for Zimbabwe’s future prosperity.
