Lynette Karenyi-Kore, a Member of Parliament for Chikanga representing the Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC), has publicly rejected the Constitutional Amendment Bill No. 3 (CAB3). She argued in Parliament that the bill fails to address the pressing needs of ordinary Zimbabweans, such as jobs, food security, and essential service delivery. Karenyi-Kore stated that her constituents are more concerned with economic hardship and social issues than with constitutional changes. She criticized the bill for not creating jobs, lowering the cost of living, or improving healthcare services. Furthermore, the MP asserted that the amendment undermines democracy by potentially reducing citizens' power to elect the president. She concluded that the country faces a governance crisis, not a constitutional one, and therefore rejected the bill.
The rejection of the Constitution Amendment Bill highlights a significant political divide and raises questions about legislative priorities versus the immediate socio-economic concerns of citizens.
