She added:<\/p>\n<p>It won the lion\u2019s share of this year\u2019s by-elections despite violence, intimidation, banning of rallies, persecution of members, unlawful arrests, deprivation of resources &amp; sponsored attacks. How many likes for the new CCC baby yatambudza Zanu?<\/p>\n<p>They dug a political grave for us. We emerged stronger. They fell into the grave themselves.<\/p>\n<p>CURRENT BY-ELECTION SCORECARD:<\/p>\n<p>@CCCZimbabwe \u2013 61% @ZANUPF_Official \u2013 39% 2022 is a sign of what\u2019s to come next year. We want to win an even bigger chunk of the pie in 2023! The citizens will win BIG!<\/p>\n<p>Even @ZECzim knows that @CCCZimbabwe is a new baby born on 24 January 2022. They, like the people, know that @CCCZimbabwe is not the MDC Alliance. @ZANUPF_Official is panicking to the point of denying the obvious! #NewYellowBaby<\/p>\n<p>Munoti \u201cchildish\u201d but you deploy so much time, energy, state institutions, political violence, vote buying, money, rally bans, paid twitter trolls &amp; <b>hired ex-members<\/b> to try &amp; fight it. The truth is chakutambudzai. Chinhu chevanhu!<\/p>\n<p>Zvikambonzi hamuna structure zvozonzi muriMDC.<\/p>\n<p>In response to Mahere\u2019s remarks, self-exiled former minister of Information, Publicity and Broadcasting Services, Professor Jonathan Moyo cited Pedzisai Ruhanya who had earlier said CCC has a huge task ahead of the 2023 elections. He said:<\/p>\n<p>It is childish for a by-election loser to claim, \u201cchakutambudzai chinhu chevanhu\u201d. Atambudzwa nekuhwina ma by-elections ndiani!? By-election results have your worried backers thinking: \u201cthe opposition (CCC) has a lot of ground to cover with only 6 months to go\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Commenting on the by-elections results, Pedzisai Ruhanya, a Zimbabwean academic, journalist, and political commentator said:<\/p>\n<p>Weekend by-election results can\u2019t be used to determine @nelsonchamisa presidential election performance in 2023. Besides the fact that in research one can\u2019t use an outlier to make a broad generalization, contemporary data reveals that from MDC to CCC, the President does better.<\/p>\n<p><b>ZANU PF won three out of the five posts<\/b> that were up for grabs on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/zimbabwe\">Zimbabwe<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Zimbabwe.
