Giving his keynote address at the 375th ordinary session of the Politburo ZANU PF First Secretary and President Dr Emmerson Mnangagwa said Under ZANU PF, Zimbabwe has remained strong and resilient democratic state which has demonstrated resilience against neo-imperialism.
“We must keep our movements united, deepen regional integration and cooperation, as well as collaborate and defend our respective independence, freedoms and sovereignty.
“More importantly, it is in this month of March, that we set aside a special day for ourselves to celebrate the Southern Africa’s Liberation Day.
“In this regard, the political consciousness of our citizenry, impartation of our revolutionary ideology, values and ethos as well as continued resistance against neo-imperialism must be given priority.
“Hence, I want to applaud the people of Zimbabwe, from across our provinces for remaining resilient and focused. This has ensured that the neo-colonial overtures by our country’s detractors, through their pursuit of illegal sanctions has been a dead end.
“Under ZANU PF, Zimbabwe has remained strong and resilient democratic state, never give into the whims of our former colonisers and erstwhile forces. We are a country of unparalleled natural endowments. Our socio-economic development is irreversible. No one and nothing will reverse our development works and the gains we have realised to date, “said President Mnangagwa.

Hence as seasoned and experienced cadres, our service to the people must reflect leadership and guidance in the implementation of Party policies, directives and resolutions. Let us be consistent and persistent in all our Party polices, programmes and activities.
“Let me reiterate that our procedures, rules and regulations remain cardinal. Structures and every cadre of the Party must seek to observe, respect, and abide by our constitution.Tinotevera Gwara reMusangano,” said President Mnangagwa.
