ZANU PF First Secretary and President, His Excellency Dr E.D Mnangagwa says efforts are in motion to improve the quality of life for Zimbabwe's citizenry.
Speaking during the 375th edition of the Ordinary Session of the Politburo, President Mnangagwa said the Government is rolling out measures to address the negative effects of drought and climate change.
"On the development front, our individual and collective resolve across every structure of the Party continues to fuel us to deliver on the promises we made to the people. This is the ZANU PF way, dating back to the period of our protracted armed struggle for liberation. The focus now and into the future is on the realisation of the aims and objectives of the Party, particularly to advance the prosperity of our people and create conditions for wealth creation as well as broad-based empowerment," President Mnangagwa.
"Earlier this morning, I had the opportunity to witness the official opening of the Champion Foods Private Limited Milling Plant here in Harare.This and other investments are indicative of the growth of our economy, notwithstanding the various challenges we are facing.
"Meanwhile, my Government is determined to implement responsive interventions towards arresting speculative activities, inflation, price increases and stabilizing the exchange rate. Equally important, our home-grown innovative solutions and hard honest work remain critical to increasing production and productivity in every sector. This must see us continually improving the quality of life of our citizenry and ultimately realize Vision 2030.
"My Government will continue to roll out measures to address the negative effects of drought and climate change. I challenge the Party to take the lead at the Cell/Village level to keep our grassroots updated and knowledgeable about the national climate action plan, including promoting conservation agriculture methods, as well as building resilience and adaptive capacities."
