“She (Chigumba) is out of order. We are not going to accept Chigumba as the chairperson of ZEC… Chigumba shall not address us… All the political parties are saying no to Chigumba… Everything is in shambles… the voters’ roll is in shambles,” Danha can be heard saying in one of the videos posted to Twitter.

According to BBC, President Emmerson Mnangagwa and his main rival Nelson Chamisa of the Movement for Democratic Change Alliance did not personally attend the event. They instead opted to send their representatives.
The signing of the peace pledge was intended to bring together all political parties and candidates in a renewed commitment to peace ahead of elections, the report said.
