CCC Mayors Refuse To Attend ZANU PF Ideological Training

The opposition Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC), through its Local Government Bureau, says its mayors will not participate in a mandatory ZANU PF ideological training program organized by the Ministry of Local Government and Public Works.

This decision follows an invitation from the Ministry for all mayors and council chairpersons to attend an indoctrination session on ZANU PF ideology scheduled for August 21 to 23, 2024.

In a statement, CCC Local Government Bureau leader Ropafadzo Makumire said that the party will not engage in any activities that conflict with its principles. Said Makumire:

Following the letter dated 16 August 2024 from the Ministry of Local Government and Public Works, authored by K. Ncube, I want to reiterate that mayors, chairpersons, and councillors of local authorities affiliated with Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) will not be participating in the Chitepo School of Ideology training programme, nor will they be represented there.
As the Chitepo School of Ideology is an institution associated with ZANU PF, dedicated to promoting its specific ideology, it is crucial to recognise that the mayors and chairpersons, who represent the citizens, are not members of ZANU PF and should not be linked to activities conflicting with the CCC stance.

The letter, which was signed by K. Ncube, on behalf of the permanent secretary of the Ministry of Local Government and Public Works, reads:

In terms of Section 5 of the Constitution, Local Authorities are a third tier of Government with devolved service delivery mandates. In this regard, they are engines towards the attainment of Vision 2030.
His Excellency, the President of the Republic of Zimbabwe, Cde Dr E.D Mnangagwa launched the Call to Action No-Compromise to Service Delivery blueprint on 01 November 2023 with a view of enhancing service delivery.
In this regard, it is pertinent for Local Authorities to be exposed to the ideals of national security and patriotism as espoused by the Chitepo School of Ideology.
You are invited to attend a training by the Chitepo School of Ideology at Rainbow Towers from the 21st to the 22nd of August 2024. Delegates are expected to be seated by 7:30 AM.

If politicians need to be educated on patriotism, there is nothing that can be done. It will all be for show or for dow.

If you are opposition, it does not mean to say you are colour blind and fail to recognise grey, oh my God election are history now, no one would scramble your post if you attend that ideological convention, Why such important, it's with grave concern that the opposition governances are merely place holders with mere hope of ascension into power one day, what if the day does not come, and never will until you lose grips of that town or City How would these council men feel if say there get restricted from using government infrastructure and roads cause of failure to cooperate, You are opposition yes but a convention is a total platform to converse and vent out your incapacitance and inept

That is where you are wrong. If the ideology is flawed, it should not be need to be force fed. If it was truly as valuable then the mayors would attend of their own choice because there would be value in it. Chitepo School Ideology is flawed. As the many spokesman have stated many times before, the C.S.I. is an organ of Zanu PF. The same spokesman have stated that Zanu PF must be treated as being above the nation of Zimbabwe. With these statements alone, patriotism is worthless, because patriotism is toward the nation, not a select group of individuals. It is like saying Liverpool is over English football and all the defenders in the EPL from Chelsea or Man U or Tottenham should go to their training camps for defence "instruction" on how to defend. When the teams come together for the World Cup, they play for England and not for Liverpool. Same with parliament. They should be there to push Zimbabwe forward, not individuals. As you have stated that they should work together if they want to get money out of government for their constituencies. Then the battle has already been lost as an organ that represents the interests of the people. Disagreement does not constitute failue to co-operate. It is through constructive dialogue that the greatest value can be brought. Constructive dialogue is not an echo chamber when everyone repeats the same sentence. That is a group of automatons who are only there for the money.

That is where you get everything wrong. Those who are saying heee ndezve party, hamuna kumboen**** ku Chitepo School of Ideology. That is for the benefit of the country. Other countries have these schools and only in Zimbabwe where opposition think they are more learned and smarter to object. Manje kuenda kana kusaenda hamufi makapinda pachigaro chamambo. Forget and Smile.

THERE GOES ANOTHER SHOWDOWN. THE RESISTANCE OF THE OPPOSITION WILL CREATE ANOTHER TSHABANGU POWER WRANGLE IN THE COUNCILS. ANY COUNCILORS WHO WILL GO FOR THE LESSONS WILLINGLY WILL LIKE TSHABANGU ASSUME MORE POWER THAN THE DEFIANT MAYOR

And that is your problem. You cannot get your head around the difference between indoctrination for the benefit of a party as opposed to the benefit to the nation. These sessions benefit a particular party, not the nation. Tshabangu is Zanu PF Lite. Don't confuse him for legitimate opposition.

It depends on how it is applied as to whether it is a law or just a stick to beat people with. There is a difference.

All mayors are Zanu pf, let's be clear about that... Zanu pf is holding them kuti dzvi, like a limpet. Some of course are attending virtual classes on this brainwashing course. After all whose interests are they standing for as mayors. They're just Zanu pf stooges, particularly this Harare mayor.

It would have not made any sense at all if they had agreed then they wouldn't be any opposition
