PRESIDENT Mnangagwa has opened economic avenues for a new generation to flourish in their areas of trade, Zanu PF Secretary for Information and Publicity Cde Christopher Mutsvangwa has said.
Speaking at a press conference in Harare yesterday to give an update on the outcomes of Politburo and Central Committee meetings held last week, Cde Mutsvangwa said Zanu PF is preoccupied with the state of the economy.
“We have a new crop of indigenous people who are doing well in their areas of speciality, we need to support and respect them.
“Some of them are doing well in gold mining, tobacco and manufacturing sectors. This is a new breed of successful businesspeople,” said Cde Mutsvangwa.
He said during the two party meetings, President Mnangagwa had been taking stock of the phenomenal resurgence of the Zimbabwean economy, which even the country’s former detractors acknowledge.
“Generally, this economy is bullish, with frantic growth in investments in steel, in lithium and even in agriculture.
“All those investments are outpacing the existing infrastructure which the country has, the historical infrastructure.
“So, the President is grappling with this mismatch between the infrastructure which is required to serve the new economy and the growth in investment in the new economy,” said Cde Mutsvangwa. Turning to the Zanu PF National Annual People’s conference set for next month in Mutare, Cde Mutsvangwa said the party is more than ready to host the annual indaba.
He said the party’s chairperson, Cde Oppah Muchinguri-Kashiri, is happy with preparations.
“We just held our review conference in Manicaland a week or two ago. Some of the infrastructure is going to be inherited from the Sanganai/Hlanganani/Kumbanayi World Travel Expo which was held in Mutare.
“So, we are up to scratch with the provision of delegates in terms of accommodation, in terms of food, in terms of all the aspects about that conference, the registration,” Cde Mutsvangwa said.
The teams, he said, are already circulating in the provinces, registering delegates.
“We are up to speed. We are very happy. The party will also be flighting a number of documentaries which celebrate the role of Manicaland in some of the epic battles of the national liberation struggle,” Cde Mutsvangwa said.
He said a lot of activities have been lined up for the conference.
