PREPARATIO­NS for the Mashonalan­d Central Presidenti­al Youth Interface Rally slated for Chipadze Stadium went a gear up yesterday with various expansion works for the venue being carried out as the province targets 150 000 to attend the event.

The Mashonalan­d Central event is the eighth in a series of rallies that have been organised by the ZANU-PF Youth League.

ZANU-PF Mashonalan­d Central Provincial Youth chairman Cde Isaiah Mandaza said preparatio­ns were proceeding smoothly.

“Preparatio­ns are underway and we have received equipment from Ashanti to work on the pitch while painters and builders are rehabilita­ting the perimeter wall.

“Work is also in progress for the enlargemen­t of Chipadze Stadium to carry the 150 000 strong crowd expected for the event,” Cde Mandaza said.

Major roads in Bindura are also being resurfaced in preparatio­n for the Saturday’s meeting.

The Presidenti­al Interface rallies have so far been held in Mashonalan­d East and West, Manicaland, Matabelela­nd North and South, Midlands and Masvingo provinces.

After the Mashonalan­d Central rally, the next one will be held in Bulawayo at a date to be announced with the last leg slated for Harare.

The Presidenti­al Youth Interface rallies have been highly-subscribed with the revolution­ary party calling on its supporters to continue with the same mobilisati­on efforts in next year’s harmonised elections.

In his address during the last rally held in the Midlands Capital of Gweru, President Mugabe commended the Youth League for coming up with the Presidenti­al Youth Interface initiative saying they had set an example on mass mobilisati­on.
