In
a
brief
statement
posted
on
his
official
social
media
platforms,
Chamisa
said:
The
best
decision
I
ever
made
in
my
leadership
journey
was
to
walk
away
from
MDC
&
CCC.
You
will
thank
me
later.
I
had
to
break
the
cycle
of
going
in
circles.
And
that
was
my
best
way
to
teach
ED
a
lesson!
Chamisa,
who
founded
CCC
in
early
2022
following
internal
disputes
within
the
MDC
Alliance,
abruptly
severed
ties
with
the
new
party
in
January
2024,
citing
infiltration
and
loss
of
direction.
Since
then,
he
has
remained
politically
active
but
has
not
officially
announced
the
formation
of
a
new
political
movement,
despite
widespread
speculation.
Political
analysts
have
long
debated
Chamisa’s
move
to
relinquish
control
of
the
CCC
just
months
after
contesting
the
disputed
August
2023
presidential
election,
where
he
claimed
the
electoral
process
was
rigged.
While
some
critics
argued
the
exit
weakened
the
opposition,
his
sympathisers
interpreted
it
as
a
recalibration
of
his
political
approach.
