Magwaliba rejects the drafting claim [LIST] [*]Advocate Thembinkosi Magwaliba pushed back on posts tying him to Constitutional Amendment No. 3. [*]Online chatter from X painted Magwaliba as a mastermind behind the draft. [*]His statement insisted he only saw the document after it was gazetted. [*]The Government of Zimbabwe never tapped him for any drafting work, he said. [/LIST] What Amendment No. 3 would change [LIST] [*]Zimbabwe Constitutional Amendment No. 3 Bill 2026 looks to stretch terms to seven years. [*]Presidential and parliamentary mandates would jump from five-year cycles. [*]The Zimbabwe Defence Forces would shift from upholding to acting in line with the Constitution. [/LIST] Fee rumors and Moyo's denial [LIST] [*]Claims floated that Advocate Thembinkosi Magwaliba billed the Government of Zimbabwe and got stiffed. [*]Because no brief ever came his way, he says no invoice exists. [*]Professor Jonathan Moyo allegedly teamed up with him on the draft. [*]Since Moyo left Zimbabwe in 2017, Magwaliba says they have never met or communicated. [/LIST] Reputation and wealthy associate claims [LIST] [*]Articles also tied Advocate Thembinkosi Magwaliba to rich figures accused of shady gains. [*]Those allegations, he argued, were flat-out false and damaging. [*]Publications ran without asking for his side, which he said wrecked his professional standing. [*]Magwaliba asked that his rebuttal spread as widely as the original posts. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
