‘It’s time for economic development’

ZANU PF is now pursuing economic development after it got a resounding mandate in last year’s harmonised elections, the ruling party’s chairperson, Cde Oppah Muchinguri-Kashiri

(pictured), has said.

She made the remarks while addressing a campaign rally for ZANU PF’s candidate for Seke National Assembly seat Cde Munyaradzi Kashambe in Dema yesterday ahead of the February 3 by-elections.

“You have been a resilient people and stood with ZANU PF in all these years despite sanctions that were imposed on our Government. And since President Mnangagwa came into power, we have witnessed tremendous development across all sectors. As ZANU PF, this is to show you that it’s time to pursue development. We have political power in the bag and this is now the time to champion economic development,” she said.

Cde Muchinguri-Kashiri highlighted some of the developments undertaken by the Second Republic, saying Seke Constituency has also benefitted from Government projects.

“Here in Seke, there are eight transformers. This will enhance access to electricity for you in this area. The ZANU PF Government is not stopping in promoting development and we will leave no one and no place behind, as the

President always says.

“We therefore thank the President for giving this constituency eight transformers through Zesa. There are also 20 computers that were given to this area, among many other initiatives to improve people’s lives.”

She also took time to commission a solarised borehole that was drilled under the Presidential Borehole Scheme at a Methodist church in Dema.

While opposition-run local authorities have failed the people, she said, Government will step in to assist them, in the same way it has provided boreholes to ordinary people countrywide through the Presidential Borehole Scheme.
