Members of the deposed Generation 40 (G40), led by exiled former government minister Saviour Kasukuwere, are accused of fanning divisions within the ruling party ZANU (PF).
Kasukuwere and former foreign affairs minister, Walter Mzembi are believed to be funding a campaign spearheaded by war veteran Blessed Geza to undermine the authority of President Emmerson Mnangagwa.
The two are allegedly sponsoring the printing of T-shirts emblazoned “2030 uchaiona pa watch” a derogatory statement implying that the President will not attain Vision 2030.
“These people are bent on putting citizens and the leadership of ZANU (PF) on a war path. They undermine the peace that is prevailing in the country. If our people turn against each other, all the developmental gains will be lost. What is needed is to unite from the grassroots to the top level of leadership in working together towards attaining Vision 2030,” said Amos Makasi, a war veteran from Karoi.
The Zimbabwean Second Republic, led by President Emmerson Mnangagwa, has achieved numerous milestones since its inception in 2017. Over 35 dams have been built and/or rehabilitated across the country, including the Marovanyati Dam in Buhera and the Lake Gwayi Shangani, which has been on the cards since 1912.
Thousands of kilometers of roads have been rehabilitated or constructed, including the Harare-Beitbridge highway and the Karoi-Binga Road. Airports such as the Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport have been upgraded and expanded.
On the economic front, the mining sector has grown significantly, with the target of achieving a USD12 billion mining economy. The government has implemented several programs to improve agricultural productivity, including the Presidential Goat Scheme and the Pfumvudza/Intwasa concept.
Key industries like CSC, Zisco, and Shamva Mine have been revived, and new investments have been attracted, including a USD1 billion steel plant in Manhize, Mvuma.
Several hospitals and clinics have been constructed or upgraded, including the Parirenyatwa Group of Hospitals and the construction of a state-of-the-art Quinary hospital. Over 1,000 primary and secondary schools have been established, and several universities have been constructed or upgraded, including the Midlands State University.
