Tsenengamu "Quits" Politics, Vows To Fight Corruption

Former ZANU PF Youth League national political commissioner Godfrey Tsenengamu has announced his decision to leave politics to focus on combating corruption.

Tsenengamu, who was suspended from ZANU PF in 2020 after naming party officials allegedly involved in corrupt activities, had previously stated in May 2024 that he intended to rejoin the ruling party.

However, during a press conference in Harare on Tuesday, Tsenengamu changed his stance, saying that his decision to return to ZANU PF was premature.

He claimed he was committed to fighting corruption through the Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Citizen’s Task Force, which he said was registered four years ago. Said Tsenengamu (via NewsDay):

I am here to tell Zimbabweans, it is high time we must work together to fight this menace of corruption. We tried it when we formed the Front for Economic Emancipation in Zimbabwe, but we realised that you cannot fight corruption effectively under the banner of a political party.

Tsenengamu asserted that there would be no sacred cows in the fight against corruption. He said:

It is a legally registered institution, which can report any individual with a rightful authority. We are going to be whistleblowing big time.
We don’t care whether you are from this party or that political party. We don’t care whether you have the support of that powerful individual or this powerful individual. We are not going to be fighting against institutions.

Critics argue that the fight against corruption in Zimbabwe has become a lost cause, as graft has nearly been normalised, particularly within the public service.

For example, public transport operators often view paying bribes to police officers at roadblocks as routine.

It is reportedly impossible to obtain a driver’s license without bribing officials from the Vehicle Inspectorate Department (VID).

Moreover, teachers frequently demand payment for extra lessons, which they have made “mandatory”.

The above are just a few instances where corruption has deeply entrenched itself in everyday practices.

Politics is not for the weak

It won't help,the very corrupt will bribe themselves out and will be blessed to continue with their corrupt ways. The very less corrupt are the ones who will be caught and prosecuted and this will be awash in the media so that those who don't know will surely accept that corruption is being fought against.

I don't see any problem with this initiative. Even back in the days Thomas Mapfumo had a corruption song, same as Mugabe had a ministry that had to deal with corruption. Naming & shaming these thugs won't help at all dzava ny'any'a idzi. The right thing now is to put "death or flogging" if found guilty pamwe ingapera.

That will achieve nothing. As it is now. All the small fish will be flogged to death, whilst the big fish swim around looking for more small finish to do their dirty work. You cannot get a thief to investigate a thief. Government is just corrupt. Even down to the sweeper. These characters know that if they talk about fighting corruption, they will paid by the most corrupt to stay out of the headlines. A sheep is still a sheep. Like Zanoids are still Zanoids. It's now in the DNA. I cannot be removed.

YOU ARE STILL IN POLITICS CDE DON'T CONFUSE YOURSELF. ITS ONLY THAT YOU ARE UNDER A DIFFERENT BANNER. AS LONG AS YOU STILL UTTER ANYTHING POLITICAL YOU ARE IN THAT BOAT. PEOPLE IN MOST CASES TURN AGAINST THEIR SYSTEMS WHEN THEY HAVE BEEN FRUSTRATED IN THE QEUST OF PERSEAVED INTERESTS. ITS HUMAN NATURE BUT WE ASK OURSELVES WHY TURNING TABLES NOW AFTER SO MANY YEARS. ITS JUST SHEER HYPOCRICY. YOU CRAVE FOR LOST POPULARITY AND YOU ARE NOW DESPERATE TO RE ESTABLISH YOURSELF BY CREATING A DIFFERENT PLATFORM BUT WITH THE SAME AIM. WE DONT WASTE ERNEGY ON PEOPLE WHO WERE FIRED AND ARE NOW IN A PERSONAL SELF RECONSTRUCTION PROCESS.

As for extra lessons u cant call that corruption, how is it corruption?? As a teacher if i am willing to go an extra mile and assist those learners who need extra lessons and are willing to pay for the service i dont see anything wrong with that becoz i will also be supplementing the peanuts i am being paid by the government.

it's when you make it mandatory, force children to come during the holiday and demand payment from parents! THAT IS CORRUPTION!!!🚫

Anonymous · 6 months ago

It's not corruption to offer extra lessons. It is corruption if you do not teach during school hours, but force parents to pay for lessons that you call mandatory, after school hours. It's like forcing people to pay for a radio licence when you don't licence to the local radios. It's called extortion.
