Tendai Biti, the deputy president of the Tshabangu Citizens Coalition for Change (T-CCC) party, encountered an unexpected and hostile reception today in Mabvuku, a suburb of Harare, Zimbabwe’s capital. The politician, who arrived unannounced to attend a funeral, was met with a barrage of insults and public humiliation.
Eyewitnesses report that as soon as Biti made his appearance, he was greeted with loud screams and derogatory remarks, with some attendees yelling, “You are a traitor Biti- Uri mutengesi iwe Biti!” The incident rapidly escalated as Biti was chased away from the event, amidst the chaos that could very well spell a significant blow to his political career.
The backlash comes in the wake of allegations that Biti sought military assistance, specifically from the feared FAZ terror group, to undermine the leadership of Nelson Chamisa, the nation’s most popular leader. This controversial move has sparked outrage among supporters and critics alike, questioning Biti’s loyalty and intentions within the political landscape of Zimbabwe.
The incident in Mabvuku raises concerns about Biti’s legitimacy as Deputy President of his Tshabangu CCC makeshift.

The implications of today’s events on Tendai Biti’s political future and the broader dynamics within Zimbabwe’s opposition movements remain to be seen.
