BY TATENDA CHITAGU MASVINGO — THE Zanu PF conference set for December in Bulawayo will endorse President Robert Mugabe’s candidature in next year’s elections, a war veterans’ leader has said.
Masvingo war veterans provincial chairman Isaiah Muzenda told The Standard Mugabe would not leave office until he fulfilled his promise for total empowerment of Zimbabweans. “He is not going anywhere. We are going to endorse his candidature in Bulawayo,” said Muzenda.
“The president is yet to complete his mandate of total empowerment through the indigenisation programme after successfully tackling the land issue.”Asked about the chaotic manner in which Zanu PF is pushing the empowerment programme, Muzenda blamed officials surrounding Mugabe for the problems.
