War veterans have expressed satisfaction over the Second Republic’s growing recognition of war veterans.

“As war veterans, we are happy that we are now receiving the recognition we deserve,” Zanu PF Secretary for War Veterans, Ex-Political Prisoners, Detainees, and Restrictees, Cde Douglas Mahiya has said.

“This year is very special as it comes after the launch of the Presidential War Veterans Fund, which is meant to address our welfare issues.”

Cde Mahiya said significant strides have been made in recognising war veterans, including constructing houses for them.

“All we wished for during the past 45 years is now being fulfilled – houses are being built and we are being empowered,” he said.

Cde Mahiya said the country is on the right political and economic path under President Mnangagwa’s leadership.
