Mnangagwa welcomes Gen (Rtd) Sibanda to ZANU PF Politburo

THE President and First Secretary of ZANU PF, Dr Emmerson Mnangagwa, this Wednesday led Politburo members in formally welcoming General (Rtd) Philip Valerio Sibanda to the important structure of the ruling party, following his recent appointment.

 

Opening the 393rd Ordinary Session of the Politburo, President Mnangagwa extended a special welcome to the former Zimbabwe Defence Forces Commander, recognising his liberation war credentials and long service to the nation.

 

“I warmly welcome you to this 393rd Ordinary Session of the Politburo. I recognise and welcome in a special way, Retired General, Cde Philip Valerio Sibanda, who was known during the struggle as ‘Cde Ananias Gwenzi’. In appointing him to this important structure of our colossal revolutionary mass Party, I am confident that his broad experience will help advance the ongoing work towards the growth and development of our Party.”

 

 

 

 

The President also underscored the importance of cultural respect, national cohesion and unity, stressing that Zimbabwe’s development must be anchored on shared values and identity.

 

“Under ZANU PF, our national values, cultural norms and rich knowledge systems continue to anchor the ongoing development, modernisation and industrialisation agenda. In this regard, this session takes place as we conclude our Cultural Month commemorations. The period saw us celebrate our way of life as an independent African people.

 

“Through various events across provinces, our diverse rich cultures were shared and transmitted to our people, particularly the youth. Party departments, educational institutions, ICTs and media platforms must sustain and continually harness the spirit behind these month-long celebrations for the good of our motherland, Zimbabwe.

 

“On our part as national leaders, I exhort us to always re-affirm the position that cultural diversity is a source of unity, social cohesion, and sustainable development. It should never be a basis for division, conflict or discord. There is no culture which is superior than the other. All cultures must be respected.”

 

President Mnangagwa urged citizens to embrace and celebrate development projects wherever they are located, saying national progress must be viewed as collective achievement.

 

“I want to encourage our citizens to always recognise and celebrate projects or investments undertaken in any part of the country, as these benefits all of us as a nation. Development is a journey; community by community, sector by sector we shall continue building our country, as a united people, step by step, brick by brick and stone upon stone.

Investments in our country, no matter where they occur should be a rallying factor and never manipulated to sow seeds of divisions.”

 

He also further called for accelerated adoption of technology and Artificial Intelligence in Party operations, alongside strengthened policy implementation and organisational discipline.

 

“As we approach the half year mark, and our next quarterly Constitutional meetings, scheduled for next month, Chairpersons of Standing Committees of the Central Committee are called upon to adequately prepare the requisite reports. The Committees remain critical centres of innovative policy generation, monitoring and oversight.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“To better serve the Central Committee, the Politburo as an executive committee of the Central Committee is urged to always serve with revolutionary vigilance ideological clarity, integrity and servant leadership. It is my expectation that Departmental Heads will scale up the rate of implementation of agreed policies and strategies, as we grow our membership as well as professionalise and modernise Party work.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“In doing so, let us embrace digital technologies, particularly Artificial Intelligence, in Party operations, guided of course, by our agreed communication guidelines and the overarching National Artificial Intelligence Strategy.”
