He said more work is needed for the party at is scales up preparations for the 2023 harmonised elections.

“We must keep our people informed and mobilised, focused and working harder towards improved production and productivity across all sectors of the economy,” said.

He said his party has always stood with the people through thick and thin.

“We have stood with the people throughout the rain & sunshine, in the good times & even during the hard times induced by the illegal economic sanctions and as well as the poor service delivery by the opposition led local authorities,” he said.
