Chamisa’s CCC Should Be Barred From Using The Yellow Colour – Zanu PF
The ruling Zanu PF party has claimed that Nelson Chamisa’s newly formed Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) plagiarised their yellow theme colour adding that it should be barred from using it since it may confuse the electorate.

Masimirembwa said:

The CCC citizen movement has thrown Zanu PF into panic mode so they are desperately trying to dampen the spirits of the people who are ready to win the nation for change. They won’t succeed.
