        Sadly the British government is not doing enough to push for verification of results and clarity even when it is clear that #NELSONCHAMISA won #ZimbabweElections2018

        This group is handling Zimbabwe as if it is their family business. That is the reason why they have no respect ✊ for people’s choices / votes. Chiwenga knows ED lost the election. If it is true that Sibanda refused to order the Army - then Chiwenga and maybe Ed are in it x (2).
