Nelson Chamisa rejects alleged criticism of anti‑CAB3 opposition leaders

Daily News published audio it said captured former opposition leader Nelson Chamisa dismissing politicians who were organising forums against Zimbabwe's Constitutional Amendment Bill No. 3, including Jameson Timba and Tendai Biti. Chamisa responded by calling the report “fake”, “misleading” and “damaging”, and denied making the remarks. He said the story was fabricated to portray him as abandoning opposition to the amendment. The dispute highlights deepening divisions within Zimbabwe's fragmented opposition ahead of upcoming elections.

Both articles report the same sequence of events: the alleged audio leak, Chamisa’s denial, and the broader political tension surrounding the proposed constitutional changes.
