A former legislator just escalated Zimbabwe's constitutional crisis all the way to the Vatican, asking Pope Leo XIV to personally intervene.
Sululu's letter to the Pope
Former MDC legislator Anadi Sululu wrote to Pope Leo XIV.
His February 27 letter went through Zimbabwe's Apostolic Nunciature.
Sululu leads a pressure group called E-Movement.
He requested a brief papal audience on the crisis.
What the constitutional fight is about
Amendment No. 3 Bill seeks to extend presidential terms to 2030.
Sululu argues it defies the 2013 national referendum's democratic will.
Parliament gazetted the Bill last month ahead of presidential assent.
National resources should help the poor, not political elites, per Sululu.
