The Daily Agenda

Bulawayo Agenda is a civil society organisation that deals with advocacy and democracy issues. It is committed to providing a platform for people to express their views and to engage and debate on issues that affect their lives. It has active chapters in Gweru, Gwanda, Matopo, Binga, Plumtree, Hwange, Victoria Falls, Masvingo, Mutare, Nkayi, Lupane and Tsholotsho.

The Daily Agenda will churn out contentious issues such as the constitution making process and will also alert recipients on the progress of the Inclusive Government. Developmental issues will feature prominently in the Daily Agenda.

Bulawayo – The Co-Chair of the Parliamentary Select Committee on the Constitution, Douglas Mwonzora has told the people to be aware of the changes of colour made to the accreditation cards to be used during outreach programs. He said these changes were made to guard against political parties that brought more people to dominate the process.

Gwanda- People are worried about the constitution making process as they feel that it is delaying. They have inquired about the dates when the outreach teams would approach them as they feel that they are prepared to say their wishes to be included in the new constitution. Moreover, the people still asked to be more capacitated with information as they feel sidelined in this process.

Plumtree- The same sentiments of lack of information still bother people adding that there is serious media blackout in the Border Town. They feel that they are neglected in the drafting process and will only be consulted by the outreach teams yet people are not fully informed.

Moreover, Contractors in the town have been told to stop operating as they are said to be in conflict with the Town Councilors. It is understood that there could be more underlying reasons than the renewal of leases which have led to the underdevelopment of the town.
