ZANU PF has temporarily suspended the distribution of the Presidential Economic Empowerment Revolving Fund, a programme that had been overseen by presidential adviser Paul Tungwarara.

The suspension was communicated in a letter dated 23 January 2026 from the ZANU PF Commissariat Department, signed by National Political Commissar M. Machacha. The letter, addressed to provincial chairpersons in all provinces, announced the immediate halt of the fund’s distribution pending new guidelines.

“The Commissariat Department wishes to announce the temporary suspension of the distribution of the Presidential Economic Empowerment Revolving Fund henceforth,” reads the letter. It adds that the party’s Secretary General, Advocate J.F.N. Mudenda, “will soon issue new guidelines on the distribution, utilisation and management of the Fund.”
Provincial structures were instructed to comply with the directive until further notice.

The fund has been associated with Tungwarara, who has been leading its rollout across the country.
In a separate but related development, the Office of the President and Cabinet has moved to cancel approvals granted to Tungwarara’s company for river rehabilitation works linked to alluvial mining control.

In a letter dated 22 January 2026, Deputy Chief Secretary for Coordination of National Programmes and Projects, Engineer A. Marawa, directed that all agreements signed between provinces and private companies for river rehabilitation without Cabinet approval be cancelled with immediate effect.

The letter states that Cabinet Directive and Statutory Instrument 188 of 2024 on environmental management were never reversed to allow provinces to enter into such contracts. “Therefore, all agreements signed between private companies and Provinces for purposes of river rehabilitation are null and void and should be cancelled forthwith,” the letter reads.

Provincial authorities were instructed to submit all such agreements to the Office of the Deputy Chief Secretary by 23 February 2026.

Mass Tort Lawyer vs Class Action Lawyer: What Is The Difference?

Many people confuse mass torts and class actions. Both involve many people harmed by similar conduct, but they are not the same. A mass tort lawyer or class action lawyer can explain which type of case may apply.

rnrn

In a class action, many people are treated as one group. The claims are usually similar, and one case represents the class.

rnrn

In a mass tort, many people may be harmed by the same product or company, but each person’s injuries may be different. Cases may be handled individually while still being coordinated together.

rnrn

Mass torts often involve dangerous drugs, medical devices, toxic exposure, defective products, or environmental harm.

rnrn

Class actions may involve consumer fraud, data breaches, wage claims, or defective products where damages are similar.

rnrn

Choosing the right legal path matters. A lawyer can review your facts and explain whether your claim fits a class action, mass tort, or individual lawsuit.

Uncontested Divorce Lawyer: A Faster Way To End A Marriage

An uncontested divorce lawyer helps couples who agree on major issues end their marriage with less conflict and lower cost.

rnrn

An uncontested divorce may be possible when both spouses agree on property division, debt division, child custody, child support, and spousal support.

rnrn

This type of divorce is usually faster than a contested divorce because there are fewer disputes for the court to decide.

rnrn

A lawyer can prepare documents, make sure the agreement is complete, and help avoid mistakes that cause delays.

rnrn

Even when spouses agree, legal review is important. A poorly written agreement can create future problems.

rnrn

Uncontested divorce may not be right if there is domestic violence, hidden assets, major power imbalance, or serious custody conflict.

rnrn

For couples who can cooperate, an uncontested divorce may save time, money, and emotional stress.
