[14][15] Nelson Chamisa formed Citizens Coalition for Change after losing[16] the squabbles over party name "MDC Alliance".

The president of the CCC party presented yellow as the new color and raising the index finger as the new symbol.

Some have suggested that Tshabangu represents a shadowy group called FAZ that runs shady electorals tasks for the ruling ZANU–PF.

He submitted his own credentials and interim constitution to the parliament and ZEC, which essentially meant he was now the bona fide leader of the party.

The recalled MPs, Senators and Councillors approached the high court of Zimbabwe claiming that Tshabangu was not a member of the CCC party moreso the secretary general.

[citation needed] Chamisa resigned on 27 January 2024, citing government interference that had "contaminated" and "hijacked" the CCC.
