Acting President Constantino Chiwenga says Zimbabweans should work hard so that there is meaningful change in their lives and the country as a whole.
Speaking as he officially opened the Agribusiness Indaba at the Zimbabwe Agricultural Show yesterday, Chiwenga said it is high time Zimbabweans particularly intellectuals work 24/7 so that come next year there is change in people’s lives and as a proof that improving their lives is doable or not.
He said it is no longer time for praise singing people as having made good points during speeches, but rather time to make a meaningful change in people’s lives.
In his speech, as he has always been doing, Chiwenga did not chant the ruling party’s newly found Slogan “2030 ED anenge achipo.”
Some sections of ZANU PF are calling for the extension of Mnangagwa’s term, and has since made the 2030 slogan their ‘national anthem.’
