Editorial:

REGISTRAR-General Tobaiwa Mudede’s remarks that the government will not seek to re-align the Citizenship Act to the new Constitution regarding the issue of dual citizenship, claiming it posed a security threat to the country are regrettable, unfortunate and a sad development for the country.

We believe Mudede’s utterances are political and meant to curry favour with Zanu PF’s hardliners, who believe dual citizenship holders are a threat to their stranglehold on power.

In a normal democracy Mudede should be censored and forced to resign.
