Chamisa explains what his trip to the United States was all about

3. Advocacy for the need for international underwriting of free and fair elections in Zimbabwe.

4. Advocacy for Constitutionalism and adherence to, and respect for, the rule of law.

5. Advocacy for Economic and Social reforms, stabilisation and international re-engagement to give Zimbabwean people hope and a better life.

Yesterday (Tuesday) my colleague and PDP President, Mr Biti, and Civil society leaders testified before the US congress, giving their perspectives. Being a serving and sitting legislator in Zimbabwe, I did not testify before the legislative committee.

We used our meetings to underscore the need and importance of the removal of all obstacles to Zimbabwe‘s full Integration back into the family of nations.

I must hasten to emphasize that our primary and principal goal is to have happiness and peace in Zimbabwe anchored through free and fair elections in Zimbabwe. It is our stated wish to have a country where everyone has a fair shot in life to thrive.

We are patriotic and never shy of understanding that national interest comes first before party political gains. Zimbabwe is our only country and home and we love it and believe in it.

This global campaign has taken us to SADC and the wider African continent. We have already had teams emphasizing on the roadmap to free and fair elections in next seven months.

Apart from directly engaging our colleagues in the ruing party Zanu PF, we will spread our footprints to Europe and the whole world until legitimacy and democracy are restored in our motherland.

Campaign restore legitimacy and Democracy is a peaceful, all inclusive citizen campaign for freedom and prosperity for a New Zimbabwe.

On the home front, our party organs, cadres and all party leaders are taking the real change message across all provinces, districts and wards in the whole country where the election will be decided.

We are encouraging every Zimbabwean to register to vote and make a difference wherever you are in order for national prosperity and total happiness to prevail.

We have an alternative narrative and alternative policies based on alternative politics. We have a fresh narrative. We need a new revolution to defend our liberation struggle, it is a legacy we should all cherish and its restoration is an immediate issue that should be done through a free and fair election.

The nation needs new policies and new politics. We have credible policies. We are rolling out those powerful policies in a few weeks to come. We are cranking up our campaign machinery.

The people shall govern. Citizens must govern.

God bless you, God bless Zimbabwe!!
