Zimbabwe's Ruling Party Secures Parliamentary Majority
News summary

Zimbabwe's ruling Zanu-PF party has won all six parliamentary by-elections, giving President Emmerson Mnangagwa a two-thirds majority in parliament and the ability to change constitutional provisions, despite allegations of fraud from the opposition. The opposition party, Citizens Coalition for Change, has faced internal discord and legal battles, ultimately leading to Zanu-PF's comprehensive victory and control of 190 parliamentary seats. However, the constitution prevents Mnangagwa from benefiting from any amendment that extends a President's term beyond the regulated two, requiring a popular majority through a referendum as well.
