Daniel Garwe asked ZANU PF members to stop posting insults about party leaders on social media platforms. The Mashonaland East provincial chairperson spoke during a Provincial Coordinating Committee meeting held in Marondera last weekend. He stressed that insulting the President goes against ZANU PF values and must end immediately. Garwe urged everyone to respect leadership at all levels within the organization.
The chairperson discussed last year's conference in Bulawayo, where 132 resolutions passed, highlighting one particular decision. The provinces agreed to extend President Mnangagwa's leadership beyond 2028, which became Resolution Number One. Party officials communicated this through various district meetings across the region. Garwe emphasized that none of these resolutions allowed members to insult others or force anyone to chant specific slogans.
Garwe expressed serious concern about certain individuals who disrespect President Mnangagwa on internet platforms. He pointed out that Mashonaland East tops the list of regions where members post offensive content about leadership. The chairperson himself has faced similar attacks online from supposed party supporters. He reminded everyone that ZANU PF has established procedures for addressing grievances through proper channels.
The party constitution provides official ways to express concerns rather than public attacks on leaders. Garwe promised he would not remain silent as people from his province continued to disrespect the President. He called on young members to stay alert and protect both the party and its leadership from attacks. Garwe stated firmly that silence equals acceptance of these insults, which true party members cannot allow.
Garwe declared all members serve as protection officers with the responsibility to defend both the organization and President Mnangagwa. He reminded attendees they voted for their President and must continue supporting him. The chairperson stressed respect remains fundamental to party operations at every level. He urged members to follow established protocols when they disagree rather than turning to social media attacks.
