Former Norton MP Temba Mliswa has launched a scathing attack on Presidential Envoy and Ambassador-at-Large Uebert Angel, calling for his arrest over rape allegations after the preacher defended Vice-President Constantino Chiwenga from public criticism. In a lengthy post titled “The False Prophet Who Became a Praetorian", Mliswa accused Angel of using the pulpit to shield Chiwenga from scrutiny while remaining silent about what he described as the Vice-President’s own conduct towards Mnangagwa. Angel made his comments during a church service at his Hippodrome ministry, condemning what he called “vitriolic attacks” on Chiwenga. He said criticism of political leaders was legitimate but warned that “contempt masquerading as criticism is diabolic. It’s evil.” 🔴 nehandaradio.com/2026/11/04/… #TembaMliswa #UebertAngel #ZimbabwePolitics

The Constitutional Court has reserved judgment on whether two war veterans can directly challenge Constitution Amendment No. 3 without first going to the High Court. Eliphas Kawa and Hazvineyi Machingura appeared before the court on Monday, represented by Tendai Biti and Advocate Lewis Uriri.

UEBERT ANGEL MAKES DRAMATIC U-TURN ON CHIWENGA Presidential envoy Uebert Angel has unexpectedly mounted a fierce defence of Vice-President Constantino Chiwenga, describing attacks against him as “political impropriety” and “intellectual bankruptcy”. Angel also warned Zimbabweans against joining Marry Mubaiwa’s public criticism of her former husband, arguing that people should not reach conclusions after hearing only one side. His intervention comes months after an ominous prophecy about an unnamed presidential successor was widely interpreted in the context of Chiwenga. Is Angel’s change of tone simply a defence of national leadership — or a sign that political calculations are shifting inside ZANU-PF? 🔴 nehandaradio.com/2026/11/02/… #UebertAngel #ConstantinoChiwenga #ZANUPF

Good news for some Zimbabweans working in UK social care: they may still qualify for settlement after five years under the government’s new policy. The concession applies to care workers who came to or switched into the route between 2022 and 2025, earned at least £25,000 a year and met their visa conditions. It does not apply automatically to every Zimbabwean or care worker in the UK. Most other migrants will face a 10-year settlement route. 🔴 nehandaradio.com/2026/11/02/… #ZimbabweansInUK #CareWorkers #UKImmigration
